Although the Marlins are not numerically eliminated yet, their chances do not look great, but 3B Jorge Cantu is continuing to hit well in 2008. Last week he also hit 3 HRs and knocked in 10 RBIs while hitting for a .385 average with an OBP of .448

The Tigers have had a disappointing season and even 1B Miguel Cabrera has played under expectations, but he did have another good week. He’s coming off of a week where he hit 3 HRs while hitting .407

In an attempt to catch the first place Rays, Red Sox DH David Ortiz had a monster week hitting 4 HRs with 10 RBIs.

Rounding out the top 10 hitters of last week are the Rays 1B Carlos Pena (3 HR, 11 RBI, .368 BA, .500 OBP); Indians RF Shin-Soo Choo (3 HR, 10 RBI, .429 BA, .500 OBP); Pirate’s 1B Adam LaRoche (4 HR, .400 OBP); Mets SS Jose Reyes (2 HR, 2 SB); Rays rookie of the year candidate who just came off the DL this past week, 3B Evan Longoria whose 3 HRs came in one game.
