POW Week 1

This site has been dormant forever...I thought that it would be fun to revive the Player of the Week (POW) section.  Nominees will only be from teams that had a winning record for the period.  Here are week one's player of the week.

Justin Upton OF ATL- Trevors Toques
Someone is pissed that he got traded during the off season and that person is Justin Upton.  Justin went off during week one to the tune of 5 homeruns and a .4545 avg.  His was 1.7073 OPS is insane!  He scored 8 runs and drove in 7.  Justin looks at home in Atlanta and could have a career year for them. 

Noteworthy
Paul Maholm P ATL - Adam's Homerun 4 Jesus
I never ever thought that I would type Paul Maholm's name here.  This will be short and sweet because it's Paul Maholm. 
2-0, 12.7 IP, 0.00 ERA and a whip of .8684.

Shin-Soo Choo OF CIN - Adam's Homerun 4 Jesus
It took me four tries to spell his name right.  Adam had an impressive 12-0 line for week one and Choo had an impressive line (.375', 3 HR's, 9 R's 6 RBI's, 1 SB).  Hopefully this doesn't become a trend.

Worthless of the Week
Jason's SP - ALL ON THE DL!

I'll take that every week if I split pitching every week.

There were other worthless players deserving the award but I wanted to note that no one has ever started all DL SP's before.

If this strategy works, they will write articles about this strategy and hopefully it will be named after you.
