Standings Thru Sunday, June 3

Lots of shuffling near the top. Bonnie sinks like a stone. The big news, though, is still the injury situation. The Rawhide Raconteur strongly suggests that the owners of Kemp and Tulo consider making a change before it's too late, while there are still some quality players with lower HR/RBI totals out there. Trumbo for Kemp? Just a suggestion ... 


1) (3) Kevin: Bautista (HR) 14; Ortiz (HR) 13; Gonzalez (RBI) 29 [14.5] = 41.5

As predicted by the Rawhide Raconteur, this squad has made their move. Expect them to be in the top three all the way.


2) (2) Bill: Cabrera (HR) 11; Uggla (HR) 8; Cabrera (RBI) 44 [22] = 41

Holding steady. A little more in the HR department and these folks might move into first with points to spare.


3) (4) Rob: Fielder (HR) 9; Granderson (HR) 17; Pujols (RBI) 29 [14.5] = 40.5

Pujols' return is helping, but it's really Granderson who's leading the way. It's hard not to see Fielder and Pujols improving, and when they do--watch out.


4) (1) Bonnie: Braun (HR) 14; Konerko (HR) 11; Kemp (RBI) 28 [14] DL = 39

A big drop here. Kemp's hamstring has got this group hamstrung (sorry, I couldn't help myself). This team's future is suddenly murky.
 

5) (5) Eric: Kemp (HR) 12 DL; Pena (HR) 8; Fielder (RBI) 35 [17.5] = 37.5

Same problem as above. Without Kemp or a decent replacement this team is going nowhere.


6) (6) Vic: Pujols (HR) 8; Reynolds (HR) 3; Texiera (RBI) 32 [16] = 27

Reynolds is back, but is it already too late? Pujols and Tex have to get hot for this group to move up.


7) (7) Texiera (HR) 9; Howard (HR) 0 DL; Tulowitski (RBI) 27 [13.5] DL = 22.5

Do I hear the sound of taps faintly blowing ...
