STUD OF THE DAY - ADAM DUNN
Big Donkey went 1-3 last night wth a HR and 3 RBIs...(5pts)...Jodi Biederstedt was the lone pick for Dunn this week (although not eligible for SOTW) Dunn is having a huge bounce back year (in regards to HRs and RBIs at least...his BA still sucks) He already has 22 HRs and is on pace to hit a career hi 57..This was his 4th HR in his last 5 games...He will be a certain pick for anyone not concerned with their BA in the 2nd half..
2012 League Ranks:
• 1st in AL in HR (22)
• 3rd in AL in RBI (50)
• 1st in AL in BB (49)
• 6th in AL in SLG (.573)
• 6th in AL in OPS (.940)

6/13 Recap - Forgetting About Albert Edition
STUD OF THE DAY - Carlos Beltran
Obviously Matt Cain was the STUD last night, as he threw one of the best games of all time, but in RTTC, we just care about the bats...Beltran was 3/5, with a HR and a RBI (5pts)...Beltrans HR was all the Cards needed as they beat the CHW 1-0....He was only picked by Tommy Zgela, who is having a very solid season thus far...Beltran is having an unreal season..He is on pace for 49 HRs and 121 RBIs....
2012 League Ranks:
• 1st in NL in HR (19)
• 3rd in NL in RBI (47)
• 10th in NL in BB (28)
• 3rd in NL in SLG (.605)

STUD OF THE DAY - Joey Votto
He was 2/4 with a HR and 3 RBIs last night as the Redlegs smoked the Tribe 9-1...Votto was picked the 2nd most times this week (6), only behind Prince Fielder (9)...If he can go on a HR binge, he can be a legitimate contender for the NL triple crown...he is one of those guys in the league you ask, "why pitch to him?"
2012 League Ranks:
• 2nd in NL in BA (.357)
• 6th in NL in RBI (41)
• 9th in NL in R (39)

6/6 Recap - Golden Edition
STUD OF THE DAY - Paul Goldschmidt
He was 3/4, HR, 3 RBIs (7PTS) - Greg Leonard had the only pick for Goldy this week...Goldy is heating up...He has a tendency to hit HRs in bunches...He has 3 HRs and 5 RBIs in his last 7 games while hitting .450...He is the same dude that had 30 HRs last year in the Minors....before August even started..
From Elias: Paul Goldschmidt went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a home run and three RBIs to help lead the Diamondbacks to a 6-1 win over Colorado. Goldschmidt now has 15 extra base hits in 62 at bats over his last 17 games after having only eight extra base hits in 101 at bats in his first 31 games of the season.
