Win Shares 16-12

My last win shares diary for a while due to being gone for the next 2+ months.  I'm kind of surprised I made it this far...thanks for all the comments and feedback.  Hope you had as much fun with it as I did.

Win shares for the Toronto series and totals below the fold.



Lowell is on a monster tear, picking up a win share on both Wednesday (3 for 4, 3 for 3 w/RISP) and Thursday (2 for 2, 2 2B, 1 for 1 w/RISP).

Lowell's win share has to come from somewhere on Wednesday and Big Papi coughs one up with an 0 for 5 appearance.

Pena is rewarded with a win share for his 3 for 4 Wednesday with 2 doubles, including a hit in his only AB w/RISP.

Lots of guys got win shares on Wednesday, actually, including Manny, who went 3 for 4 with a double and a walk.

Varitek got his second win share yesterday by going 1 for 4 with a double, which came in his only at-bat w/RISP.  Over half of Varitek's value right now is due to his fielding win shares.

Youk had a monster day yesterday, going 3 for 5 with a homer with runners on.  He also went 1 for 2 w/RISP to get his fifth win share.

Beckett continues to struggle to the tune of one win share after his 5 IP, 4 ER start on Wednesday.

Clement gets his first win share of the season by going 6 innings and allowing only one run.
