| Bruce has been having a big 2014 season for Buffalo. |
The Swatara Eliminators feature 3 of the American League's top 4 hitters, with Yadier Molina who has been consistently at the top. Victor Martinez missed all of last season due to injury.
Miguel Cabrera of the Buffalo Yankees (who fell short of the Triple Crown last season) is heating up, lifting his batting average up to .297, while moving up the HR ladder with 10 for the season.
Miguel is not the only Yankee making some noise this season, Jay Bruce leads the A.L. with 11 HR's and 32 RBI.
Shin-Soo Choo of the South Shore Fighting Imps finds himself ranking good in the Triple Crown categories -- He's hitting .307 (5th), with 7 HRs (5th) & 23 RBI (tied for second).
Jacoby Ellsbury is making a mockery on the base paths, having three times the amount of steals than his Chicago Nine teammate Carlos Gomez.
Thank goodness we don't have a Comeback Player of the Year Award! It would be tough to decide between "V-Mart" (mentioned above) of Swatara & South Shore's John Lackey. Manager Bill Gillam's choice of drafting last season's uncard in Lackey is looking like a genius move, while drafting Hyun-Jin Ryu to go along with Doug Fister.
The Brooklyn Mets' Clay Buchholz currently leads the league with a 1.50 ERA & 4-1 record.
The Fairgrove Tigers' Madison Bumgarner leads the league in strikeouts (60), while tied with 6 victories.
Joe Nathan (Fairgrove) and Koji Uehara (Buffalo) lead a list of recognizable names, and some newcomers to the Saves list in Drew Smyly (Chicago) and David Carpenter (Brooklyn)
N.L. Leaders
Micheal Cuddyer of the King Road Kings leads the National League in batting average, also among the leaders are Martin Prado (of Holland) and Donaldson (of Traverse City) who have been consistent factors this 2014 BoS Season.
The Holland Hitchhikers' Evan Gattis is off to a great start his rookie year, pacing the league with 11 home runs. Nelson Cruz & Chris Davis of the San Diego Heroes, trail with 9 HRs.
Josh Donaldson who was leading the league for awhile in batting average, has been among most offensive categories in the N.L. for the Traverse City Panthers.
The Traverse City Panthers are off-and-running, blowing away the competition in the steals department, Jean Segura leads the N.L. with 20, trailed by his teammates Jarrod Dyson (who has mostly come off the bench) and Hunter Pence.
We already know of Julio Teheran's season, but lets bring some attention to the season that Cliff Lee of the Portland Microbrewers is having so far -- 5-0, 1.86 ERA with 53 K's in 53.1 innings.
The young Cuban rookie Jose Fernandez is making a huge impact for Holland, with 62 K's in 51 innings, his K numbers are sandwiched between Teheran (71) and Matt Harvey (60) of T.C.
Greg Holland leads the league with his 9 Saves for Holland.
*** This concludes the BoS League Leaders for both A.L. & N.L. ***
