In total, our picks have hit 144 HR in 3214 AB (4.48 HR/100 AB)
Last week, our picks hit 10 HR in 124 AB (8.06 HR/100 AB)
What a week. Our overall rate of 8.06 HR per 100 AB was the best seen so far, and this was also the first week in which everybody who participated got at least 1 homer.
Alas, my stay in first place lasted only 24 hours, with Hawkeyeop moving back into the lead thanks to 4 HR in 20 AB from Jose Bautista (this ties the 2nd best numbers returned in a single week so far - the 4 HR in 20 AB recorded by Nelson Cruz in week 1 that put Hawkeyeop in the lead to begin with).
Elsewhere, Incensed and Bootis both reached the 20 HR mark, Bootis moving into third place due to having fewer AB.

Last week, our picks hit 6 HR in 133 AB (4.51 HR/100 AB)
The were no changes on the leaderboard last week. Robinson Cano made it 10 straight weeks with at least one home run for me, but despite this, Hawkeyeop stretched his lead to 3 HR with 4 weeks to go.

In total, our picks have hit 162 HR in 3479 AB (4.66 HR/100 AB)
Last week, our picks hit 12 HR in 132 AB (9.09 HR/100 AB)
12 HR in 132 AB was our best overall performance in a single week so far. For the second straight week, everybody stays in the same position on the leaderboard, and for the second time in three weeks, everybody’s pick hit at least one homer. If we can keep this up, 200 total HR and an overall rate of 5 HR per 100 AB aren’t out of reach.
Hawkeyeop (8 consecutive weeks) and I (11 consecutive weeks) continued our long streaks of getting at least one homer per week. Hawkeyeop now has a 5 HR lead with just 3 weeks to go - time’s running out for the rest of us.
