Midweek Fantasy Baseball Update
Yesterday the Doomsday Church of Oblivion awoke from its slumber of
the last ten days, and knocked some balls around the park.
The offense was led by solo home runs from Derek Jeter, Manny Ramirez,
Jay Bruce, Jayson Werth, and Jim Thome. Alex Rios had an excellent day
at the plate, going 4 for 6 and driving in a pair of runs. The only
weak parts of the offense yesterday were Mark Teixeira's 2 for 7* and
Garrett Atkins's 0 for 4.
* Yes, seven.
Sounds like the Doomsday Church needs to put some fear into their
corner infielders, because those guys are supposed to put a bit more
charge into the ball. I swear, I'm this close to starting Aubrey Huff
over Garrett Atkins, possibly on a regular basis.
But as a whole, the team batted .350 yesterday, with 5 HR, 10 R, 11
RBI, and 1 SB (thank you Jayson Werth!). That was just barely enough
to squeeze back into the lead for this week, after a thoroughly
disappointing first few days.
Keep it up, or you're doomed!
