Standings Thru Sunday, May 6 (4:20 PM)

Hi everyone. Little movement this week. Braun's the only standout (along with Kemp, of course). Pujols now breathing. The Rawhide Raconteur predicts big doings over the next month or so, for just about every team here - there are a lot of players just on the verge of breaking out.

Oh yeah, the number in parenthesis after a team's current position is their place the update before.



1) (1) Bonnie: Braun (HR) 8; Konerko (HR) 6; Kemp (RBI) 27 [13.5] = 27.5

Is Bonnie already opening up a lead here? Braun's hot week says so. So does Konerko's consistency and Kemp's kemping along. The rest of the league sighs ...


2) (2) Eric: Kemp (HR) 12; Pena (HR) 5; Fielder (RBI) 13 [6.5] = 23.5

Lost a little ground, but still breathing down the Bonnie's neck. It's mostly Kemp, though - can this hold?


3) (3) Bill: Cabrera (HR) 7; Uggla (HR) 3; Cabrera (RBI) 22 [11] = 21

Cabrera express still looking good. The Rawhide Raconteur is not yet impressed with Uggla. 


4) (4) Kevin: Bautista (HR) 5; Ortiz (HR) 6; Gonzales (RBI) 15 [7.5] = 18.5

Ortiz is looking (and playing) like a new man. Hard to see Gonzo and Bautista not having at least solid years. The Rawhide Raconteur predicts this team making a move into the top three within a couple weeks tops.


5) (5) Rob: Fielder (HR) 4; Granderson (HR) 9; Pujols (RBI) 7 [3.5] = 16.5

Pujols is on the board! Could mean nothing could mean everything. Fielder oh Fielder where art thou's overpaid ass?


6) (7) Vic: Pujols (HR) 1; Reynolds (HR) 2; Texiera (RBI) 16 [8] = 11

Reynold's and Pujols coming to life (sort of). Texiera's RBIs solid. Out of the cellar and perhaps on to greater things ...


7) (6) Mark: Texiera (HR) 4; Howard (HR) 0 15-DAY DL; Tulowitski (RBI) 13 [6.5] = 10.5

Little hope till Howard's back, which could be a while. Only a fool would count these guys out with so much season to go - Howard hits em in bunches and everyone else here is more than solid.
