Minor League Ball Fantasy League Update

Sorry I'm late with this. Holidays, you know..

TEAM OF THE WEEK: Amson - Nelson Spencer.
Best week head-to-head & gained +24.5 points in the
standings to the guy who offers more trades & hangs out in
the live scoring more than anyone else in the league!
Tenacity pays off sometimes.

HITTER OF THE WEEK: Jose Reyes - The Lollards
Drove in 7 runs (try doing THAT from the lead-off spot!) &
successfully stole 3 bases (try doing THAT from the...
ok..). It is my belief that baseball as a whole is better
when Jose Reyes is good and playing.

TOP TEN HITTERS FOR WEEK 8:
1. Reyes - The Lollards
2. Carlos Gonzalez - Sickel me Longo
3. Miguel Cabrera - Crumpton Roches
4. Albert Pujols - Anything's Possible (I was at the 3-HR
game on Sunday. WOW.)
5. Alex Rios - Hungry Honduran Hippos
6. Hunter Pence - Amson
7. Rajai Davis - Jake's Snakes
8. Brandon Phillips - Team Name
9. Evan Longoria - Team Name
10. Robinson Cano - Vote for Pedro's Thighs

PITCHER OF THE WEEK: Brett Cecil - Amson
Part of the reason for the Amson charge this week, Cec had
two QS-W's, pitching 15.3 IP with 10 K's. He's been really
streaky so far in his MLB career & when that sinker gets
elevated, HR's soon follow but when the sinker is down, look
out.

TOP TEN PITCHERS FOR WEEK 8
1. Cecil - Amson
2. Jon Lester - Minor Offense
3. Anibal Sanchez - Amson
4. Clay Buchholz - Anything's Possible
5. Adam Wainwright - Crumpton Roches
6. AJ Burnett - NY Dynasty
7. Roy Halladay - The Sloweys (perfect games get no respect
in this league!)
8. Jon Garland - Caballeros Guapos
9. Carlos Silva? - Amson
10. Matt Cain - Free State Liberators

THE BUMS WILL ALWAYS LOSE, LEBOWSKI!: Defenders of Zordon.
Our hopes for a complete league were dashed again last
week... I fear there is no hope...

BUM HITTER: Jayson Werth? - The Velvet FOG...
Ugh. 1-20 last week with 11 KO's.. If this is the price I
have to pay for having two incredible months, I will gladly
take it. Maybe.

WORST OWNED HITTERS FOR WEEK 8:
1. Werth(less) - FOG...
2. Chase Headley - Jake's Snakes
3. Carlos Gomez - Amson
4. Alberto Callaspo - Maxwell's Silver Hammers
5. Bengie Molina - Astronomie Domonie
6. Jeremy Hermida - Astronomie Domonie
7. Chris B. Young - Veni Vidi Vici
8. Kosuke Fukudome - Free State Liberators
9. Will Venable - Hungry Honduran Hippos
10. Adrian Gonzalez - The Boomers

BUM PITCHER: Tony Sipp - BatCats
I would love to get one out in an MLB game as a pitcher,
myself. Just one guy. That would be awesome. If Tony Sipp
shared my sentiments, he could retire right now after
getting one out & giving up 6 ER & 2 HRA last week...

TEN WORST OWNED PITCHERS FOR WEEK 8
1. Sipp - BatCats
2. Tim Wakefield - Red Sox Faithful
3. Matt Garza - Maxwell's Silver Hammers
4. Dan Haren - The Velvet FOG...
5. Wandy Rodriguez - Hungry Honduran Hippos
6. Ryan Perry - Maxwell's Silver Hammers
7. Charlie Morton - Team Name
8. John Grabow - Minor Offense
9. Chris Sampson - Free State Liberators
10. Gil Meche - Red Sox Faithful

No "think piece" this week. I'll "think" of something for
next week.
Have a great week!

Boomer.
