Week 6: July 20 - July 26, 2015






Standings: July 26, 2015



- Starting next week, the Playoff Chase will officially be underway as there will be less than one month remaining in the regular season. Additionally, trade talks are expected to heat up as the calendar switches from July to August. Looks like there will be 6 teams battling for 5 spots this year!

- This week's Player of the Week was 2B Tony Gomez (MEX) of Dallas, who hit .440 with 4 HR and 8 RBI with 6 runs scored. For the season, the 23 year old is hitting .315 with 9 HR and 30 RBI in 143 ABs.

- Outside of that, very little news this week. Of note, SP Andy Newsome (USA) of Washington returned from the DL and tossed 5 innings of 3 run ball in a 9-2 loss against Los Angeles. The 24 year old is a key part of the first place team's rotation.



Standings: July 26, 2015



- C Armando Gildard (MEX) of Tijuana was named the Player of the Week, the first such player from TIJ to win the award. Gildard hit .431 with 1 HR and 7 RBI in the last week, and is hitting .245 with 1 HR and 9 RBI for the season.

- Similar to as with the USABL, not a ton of news this week. 3B Jesus Rosales (MEX) of Monterrey will be out 2 weeks with a bone bruise. He was off to a slow start, hitting .214 with 0 HR and 0 RBI in 28 ABs to start the year. Eddie Lopez (MEX) will move from the outfield to start at 3B, with Carlos Herrera (MEX) entering the lineup in LF.



Standings: July 26, 2015



- This week's Player of the Week was SP Ed Upton (CAN) of Vancouver, who went 2-0 on the week with a 0.60 ERA and 8 Strikeouts in 15 innings. He held batters to just a .173 average against in the first full week of the Canadian season.

- No other injuries or returning players this week!
