Week 20 Results - Timmy G Salvages Season

Stud of the Week - Tim Guelde

It has been a pretty brutal year overall for Tim G....but this week he salvaged his season with a solo SOTW performance, its his 1st of the season...Unless he can go on a HR binge, its not looking likely he will finish in the top 3 ... He is currently 11 HRs behind 3rd place right now...Congrats Tim on your $50...(Google Pic - Timmy G)

DUDS of the Week - Stout, Todd G., Finkes, T Krauss, Curlis, Holbrook, D Rychener, Roach

The early week injury struck again taking out 8 guys this week...6 of the guys picked Big Papi, who has a bad foot (don't think on the DL) and one guy picked J Kipnis, he was placed on the DL on Monday night..The other, Roach, didn't even get a pick in so he went 0-21, really hurting his BA chances...A few of those guys are in the hunt in the season ending awards, so this week was a bad blow to them.

Week 7 Recap

Not very often does the concensus top pick of the week ened up being the SOTW, but this week that is exactly what happened...

Studs of the Week - Stout, Da. Krauss, Kapcar, R. Jones, Price, Pennington, Finkes, Perrotta

These 8 all went with Adrian Gonzalez who has been absoultely nuts in the month of May...Last week he was 13/27 with 7 RBIs (20pts)...This may be the first time ever that the SOTW did not hit any HRs...Each of the 8 Studs all on average raised their BA about 40 pts...Also this was the 1st SOTW for all 8 players getting them a pay out of $6.25 per....Congrats on the big week...(Google Pic - Elite 8)

Duds of the Week - Biederstedt, Banks, Brink

The not so killer B's this week all went with V Martinez and he did not deliver as he only got 3 hits in 19 at bats for a total of 3 pts....Of the 3, Brink is having the best year so far and is now under .300 for the first time all year at .295...

STAT THAT MAY ONLY AMAZE ME:

Since week 3, E Krauss (ME) has only 14 hits total...the SOTWs had 13 this week....unreal...and a side note the STL Cards "big 3" has just killed me this year going 9/66 .136 total when I picked them.
