9/7 Recap - Back At It

This week hasn't been so good with technology...I will leave it at that...Also, I was attending the funeral of the 2011 Indians as they were pronounced dead about early Wednesday afternoon...so..Back in the swing of things now for the stretch run

Yesterday's Stud of the Day - Andrew McCutchen
2/3, 2 HRs, 4 RBIs- The Meek-Shipley combo were the only one to pick him this week..(Pirates homers, haha)

Notables -
Ian Kinsler also had 2 hits yesterday...both solo HRs...good pick by Dillaman
Ellsbury - 4/5, HR, 3 RBIs...huge 8 pt day for Zgela, Emmons, Wyse
V-Mart - 2/5, HR, 4 RBIs...Tigers rollin on to the playoffs led by Vic and MiggyCab...Mathews, nice pick, Vick has 10 RBIs this week already! Mathews going for MVP!
A Gonzalez - 2/4, HR, RBI - Doug K was the only one to pick him this week...

Victor Martinez - 17 pts!
Tulo - 13 pts
Ellsbury - 11 pts
Papi -11 pts

Week 15 Results

Sorry for the mess up yesterday, the "last 7 days stats" on MLB.com Fantasy for some reason was counting July 14th games twice, very strange...so i guess just a good reminder to always double check what your stats are in case their is a mess up...so the revised week 15 SOTW are...

STUDS OF THE WEEK - Doug Krauss, Derek Meek

Both of these guys get their 1st SOTW of their careers...Markakis was the man for Doug and Hanley Ramirez for Meek as they both pulled in 12 pts in the 4 day week, which would equal 21 pts during a normal week, which sounds about par for the course...Doug is having his best success this year on the BA side of things where he is at .285 and definately capable of making a run there...look for him to start picking all high average guys in the 2nd half...Meek (and his silent "partner" Shipley) are probably having their best success in HRs where they are only 6 back from 3rd place right now....so there is plenty of time climb the board...Congrats on the $25 each....(Google Pic - Double D)

DUDS of the WEEK - Tim Guelde, Kyle Krauss, Krista Krauss

Rough short week for these 3...Tim and Krista went with A Gonzalez who went 1 for 15, and Kyle went with C Pena who also went 1 for 15...Of the 3, Kyle is in the best shape overall being in the top 10 in HRs and RBIs, but any more weeks like this and the SOTWs will be the only way to get some cash...Tim has had a forgettable past month and half as he has 3 Duds in the last 6 weeks, and now finds himself 2nd to last in BA...speaking of slumping bad....Krista has 7 pts in the last 3 weeks!...I think that is karma for talking trash at home to me throughout this whole season...live and learn KJ...
