Oakland A’s: Jack Cust
Jack had 3 HRs this week, but only 4 RBIs while he hit .500 with an OBP of .600 and he scored 6 runs (3 of which came on his 3 HRs).
A close second to Cust was Pirate’s RF Xavier Nady who went homerless this week but also scored 6 runs while hitting for a .450 BA with an OBP of .593 and he knocked in 7 RBIs.
Rounding out this weeks top 5 hitters, based on Fantasy Baseball 5×5 metrics, were the Giants Aaron Rowand, the Dodger’s Juan Pierre and the Mat’s Jose Reyes. You can see their numbers below.
