Atlanta’s 1B Mark Teixeira hit 6 HRs last week while driving in 11 runs and hit .429 with an OBP of .571 to take this past week’s top spot for hitter of the week.
The Rays’ rookie sensation had another good week hitting 4 HRs while driving in 12 runs of his own and he hit .424 with a stolen base.
Number three on this list with 3 stolen bases is Yankee OF Bobby Abreu. His complete line was 6/2/9/3/.478/.571 (R/HR/RBI/SB/BA/OBP).
The 4th & 5th guys on this list both play for the Sox and had 2 stolen bases. They are Boston’s minuete 2B Dustin Pedroia and White Sox RF Jermaine Dye.
Rounding out the bottom 5 of this top 10 list are Met’s 3B David Wright, Toronto 3B Scott Rolen, Rays’ LF Carl Crawford, Mets’ 1B Carlos Delgado and Boston’s 3B Mike Lowell.
