Standings Thru Sunday, May 20th

Some shifting in the standings. So far, though, the season is mostly marked by under performance and injury. A couple of breakout weeks from a number of players could completely scramble everything.
 

1) (1) Bonnie: Braun (HR) 11; Konerko (HR) 8; Kemp (RBI) 28 [14] = 33

With Kemp standing still everyone is starting to catch up to him. The Rawhide Raconteur predicts this squad will fall at least one position by next update. Oh the twists and turns of the long season ...
 

2) (4) Kevin: Bautista (HR) 11; Ortiz (HR) 9; Gonzalez (RBI) 21 [10.5] = 30.5

As predicted this team is making their move. Bautista's getting back to normal, the new-look Ortiz is solid, and Gonzo, despite a slow start, is still contributing. These guys might be the team to beat before it's all over.


3) (2) Bill: Cabrera (HR) 8; Uggla (HR) 5; Cabrera (RBI) 34 [17] = 30

Cabrera's driving in the runs but is in a bit of a HR drought. I hard to believe he won't start up again soon, though. Uggla's faltering. He needs to surge for this group to stay near the top.


4/5 (5) Rob: Fielder (HR) 7; Granderson (HR) 13; Pujols (RBI) 18 [9] = 29


A nice little uptick for the Rawhide Raconteur's squad. They won't content for real, though, until either Pujols or Fielder starts to earn their money.


4/5 (3) Eric: Kemp (HR) 12; Pena (HR) 5; Fielder (RBI) 24 [12] = 29

 So far a decent Fielder performance and semi-disaster one from Pena. Without Kemp these guys are probably also rans.


6 (6) Vic: Pujols (HR) 3; Reynolds (HR) 2 DL; Texiera (RBI) 20 [10] = 15

Disabled and under performing. Pujols and/or Tex needs to break out for this group to have a chance.


7) (7) Mark: Texiera (HR) 5; Howard (HR) 0 DL; Tulowitski (RBI) 18 [9] = 14

Tex and Tulo having subpar starts. Where for art thou Howard?
