ROY

Rickie Weeks has a very good shot at earning Rookie of the Year honors in the National League this year. Even though he was called up so far into the season, he still has a legit shot thanks in part to it being a poor crop of rookies this year. The line that Rickie has currently put up is .279/.373/.500/.873 with 7 homers and 7 stolen bases. Rickie's main competition, now that Rockies' SS Clint Barmes is out, is Pittsburgh lefty Zach Duke who is 3 - 0 with a 0.93 ERA in his first four starts. Obviously Duke will have to put up some gaudy numbers the rest of the way to remain in contention.
