POW Hitting: Week 9

This week's player of the week goes to a team that did a lot of talking up of his player. Besides his dad being a bum, this weeks player of the week goes to Prince Fielder of the Utility Men.

Prince Fielder - Utility Men
4 Hr's, 7 Rbi's, 5 R's, .391 Avg, and 1.517 Ops
This guy is TIED for the major league lead in homeruns along with Arod.

Noteworthy:
Russel Martin - Slumpbusters
4 Hr's, 6 Rbi's, 7 R's, .360 Avg, and 1.265 Ops
I always love when catchers go yard. I wanted to give the award to Russel this week but Calvin still could have won his matchup this week even without him.

Derrek Lee - Utility Men
3 Hr's, 6 Rbi's, 5 R's, .385 Avg, and 1.162 Ops
7 of the 10 Utility Men's homeruns were from Lee and Fielder. It's time to mix it up a bit.

Alfonso Soriano - FKAky
3 Hr's, 5 Rbi's, 7 R's, .464 Avg, and 1.357 Ops
Soriano had a great end to his week, going deep in three consecutive games and finished the week with a 5 for 5 performance.

Brad Hawpe - Poppers
2 Hr's, 5 Rbi's, 5 R's, .444 Avg, and 1.472 Ops
I hate the Poppers this week so nothing will be said about Brad Hawpe.

Dan Uggla - Beaners
3 Hr's, 7 Rbi's, 8 R's, .423 Avg, and 1.413 Ops
Great week for Uggla, any other week and he would have won it.

I would like to end with a baseball quote today.
