This week's top batters were all clustered around a few teams - Las Vegas, Carolina, and New Jersey in particular, but it was a Falcon that took the prize. This week's JR Cigars Smokin' Batter of the Week is Lance Berkman, who batted .500 (12-24) this week, with a .600 OBP and 1.000 slugging, plus 8 runs. Berkman's teammate Skip Schumaker (.500/.542/.773) also had a good week. Las Vegas really mad eout well in their recent trades - John Baker (.524/.621/.762, 9 R, 8 RBI) and Dan Uggla (.478/.586/.957, 3 HR, 6 R, 8 RBI) both had tremendous weeks.
Other top hitters: Carolina's Mike Aviles (.429/.429/.714) and Magglio Ordonez (.417/.444/.708), New Jersey's Fernando Tatis (.545/.615/.909, 8 R), Jhonny Peralta (.458/.440/708, 9 RBI), and Elijah Dukes (.412/.500/.647), and Newark's Ramon Vazquez (.526/.591/.789).
This week's Josh Womack Pitcher of the Week Award goes to Vancouver's Ben Sheets. Sheets was one of only two pitchers to go 2-0 this week (Las Vegas' Rich Harden was the other), while posting a 1.13 ERA in 16 innings, and striking out 11. Sheets, who has yet to live up to his potential, is enjoying perhaps his finest DMBL season yet. Speaking of Harden, our runner up posted a 1.80 ERA, while striking out 13 in 15 innings.
Other top hurlers: Hoboken's Mark Buehrle (1-0, 2.57), Marietta's Mike Mussina (1-1, 1.93) and Jon Danks (1-1, 2.53, 14 K), Newark's James Shields (1-0, 2.25), and Hillsborough's Jose Arredondo (1-0, 0.00, 6 K, in 6.1 IP).
