Manny-Likey

Fitz has taken command of the league. With a patchwork staff and some hitters finally hitting their stride, his team is on top of its game. Not much movement, essentially 3 tier league right now. Remember, we have money slots for the All-Star break...get some.

Team Fitz: Carlos Lee and Joba bring Fitz back into 1st. Joba gets attacked by bugs through 8ip and gets the W, Lee 3/3 with 6TB's, Jeter extends hit streak.

Team Riz: Pierre, Rollins, and Utley stay hot. OBP has been taking a hit with Lind, Braun, and Votto either hurt or not playing well. 30innings behind, may need to trade for another SP at some point.

Team Sully: hanging around 80pts, Kemp 2/4, Sully is starting Weiters and taking his early lumps, Lester looks like a great move as he strings together 2 good starts, Kaz on the DL for Ev, Grienke coming back to earth just a bit.

Team Bagger Vance: Bags can't seem to settle on a starting lineup, Lopez looks off, Ichiro and Longoria giving him staying power, Volstad solid all year, "Sherez" lit up over ther weekend.

Team Josh: back from Alaska and balls deep in 5th place, Hanley solid playing through pain, Vlad needs to pick up for Quentin being on the DL, Palmer headed back to the bullpen, Santana still a pitcher with little help.

Team Chris: How Beltre is still playing third baffles me, guy has a .260OBP, and that is higher than last week. Pedroia hitting but light years away from last year, 17HR and 80 some RBI's? I dont see it this year. Oswalt gets back on the horse and dominates the Rockies, Lidge gets his shit together until his next run in with Pujols

Team Ev: I love ya Ev, but to think you weren't going to keep A Gonz is funny, 20HR's. JUpton and Crawdad hitting well, Craw 30 bags, Pavano his best arm right now...

Team Crupster: Staff settling down a bit with a resurgent Verlander, Lackey getting the feel back, and Cueto solid. Besides Pujols someone has to step it up, Beltran has been sick, McCann has been hitting well with his new glasses

Team Sliggs: coming around boys, Holliday has hit well of late, a few HR's in the past days, Berkman getting through the low .200's, holding onto Myers for their playoff run, enough closers to starve a small family

Team Sean: Mauer coming back down to the mere mortals, a good lineup, this team can still go somewhere, if Ortiz ever was worth playing the TB numbers would be there, Santana possible TJ surgery, he needs Bay to stay hot

Team Crowley: needs to throw Sizemore on the DL, Alexei coming around, Howard still all or nothing, Reynolds great last week, BUpton needs to get out of the low .200's.

Team Brown: Volquez looks like he will go back to the DL after 1 inning, Hamilton may join him again, ARam back after the All Star break, Chipper's toe hurts, good team with a ton of problems, looks like its back to the 99 to regroup.
