Sunday, June 1st, 2121: NL's Best Batter Announced
Free agent-to-be Mike Wooten has inflated his asking price over the past 30 days by winning the National League Batter of the Month.
In May, the 43-year-old Cincinnati first baseman hit .500 with 14 home runs and 26 RBIs.
If he keeps putting numbers like that up, he could be hauling in a big wad of cash at this time next year.
Posting a .507 batting average to date, Wooten has 19 home runs and 43 RBIs.
Sunday, June 1st, 2121: Hartford Starter Wins May's Pitcher Award
It was a very good month for Brennan Lane in May. The 38-year-old veteran starter for the Hartford Whalers outpitched everybody -- young and old -- to claim the American League Pitcher of the Month award earlier today.
Lane ran up a 5-0 record in his 6 starts during the month. In 46 innings he fanned 65 and recorded a 0.78 ERA.
In 11 starts this season Lane has fashioned a 8-1 record and a 1.08 ERA.
