In total, our picks have hit 120 HR in 2837 AB (4.23 HR/100 AB)
Last week, our picks hit 8 HR in 140 AB (5.71 HR/100 AB)

Yet again, the middle of the leaderboard changes a lot but remains incredibly close, with everybody from third to sixth place moving either up or down a spot. Bootis has now gained three places in two weeks.

Overall, this was our best week since week 2 in terms of the rate at which our picks hit homers.

In total, our picks have hit 126 HR in 2973 AB (4.24 HR/100 AB)
Last week, our picks hit 6 HR in 136 AB (4.41 HR/100 AB)

Yet more movement in the middle of the pack, with Incensed moving up into fourth place, ahead of The Other Jeffrey Lebowski and wolfman. Ryan Zimmerman’s 2 homers over the weekend made it 7 consecutive weeks with at least 1 homer for me - tying Hawkeyeop’s record (which was set over the first 7 weeks of the season)

In total, our picks have hit 134 HR in 3090 AB (4.34 HR/100 AB)
Last week, our picks hit 8 HR in 117 AB (6.84 HR/100 AB)

Luke Scott’s longball yesterday ended Hawkeyeop’s reign of 140 consecutive days atop the leaderboard; giving me a slender lead of 7 at-bats. Elsewhere, Incensed and Bootis opened up some daylight between themselves and The Other Jeffrey Lebowski and wolfman - injuries to both A-Rod and Carlos Gonzalez spoiled the week for them.

Overall, 6.84 HR/100 AB is the second highest rate posted by our picks for a single week, behind only week 2’s 7.45 HR/100 AB
