Apparently we had a wedding in the LBBL this week as our own Brian Steuerwald tied the knot this weekend. Just for that, I promise not to pick on his last place team this week. Instead I'll relish in the fact the the Donkies have moved into first place by means of some unknown tiebreaker. Sure, it's Week 11, but I'm still going to enjoy the moment. Also, what's going on with the Laser Show? Six straight weeks without a win? Here's a look at the rest of Week 11:

Best Available:

Runs - Jose Altuve (Houston) - 43
HRs - Adam Dunn (White Sox) - 23
RBIs - Adam Dunn (White Sox) - 52
SBs - Tony Campana (Cubs) - 23
Avg - Jose Altuve (Houston) - .317 (83/262)

ERA - Ryan Dempster (Cubs) - 2.11 (81 IP)
WHIP - Ryan Dempster (Cubs) - 1.01 (81 IP)
W - Ivan Nova (Yankees) - 9
SV -  Rafael Soriano (Yankees) - 13
SO - Bud Norris (Houston), Felix Doubront (Boston) - 81


Line of the Week:

Matt Cain - 9 IP 0 H 0 R 0 ER 0 BB 14 K... Ties the record for most strikeouts in a perfect game. Good job, Astros...


Players With More Home Runs Than Albert Pujols:

Another one homer week for Albert as he finally reached double digits yesterday against Arizona. The good news is that he stole his 4th base of the year earlier in the week. Still, just a 6 for 24 showing in Week 11 and the average holds steady at .256. He had it as high as .264 in the middle of the week, but went just 1 for 12 against Arizona over the weekend. Here's the weekly list of players with my homers than The Machine:
