The home stretch sneaks up on us every single season and this year is no different. It probably doesn't feel like we've played 70% of the fantasy regular season already but this is your annual wakeup call that it's about time for your team to get into playoff mode. Even though we're already beyond the halfway point in our fantasy season, it's not too late to post our stat leaders, select some all stars, and hand out some 1st half awards. Unlike usual Shocker fantasy posts, I will be as quiet as Verne Lundquist on the 18th green at The Masters as you continue to scroll downward through endless baseball data. This is good because if the boss catches you reading this on your computer or phone, you can tell him that you're just analyzing some work related spreadsheets and if he falls for it, you're good at bullshitting and your boss is bad at bossing.
We'll lead off with out stat leaders.

Your fantasy commish doesn't require that all teams be represented in our all star game so if you don't see your name below and you do not like that fact, there are three key reasons for this:
1. Your eye for talent is the same as the Cleveland Browns front office.
2. Your fans suck at all star voting.
3. You have a big ego. It's just a fake fantasy team in a league full of fake baseball teams. Take a chill pill, homeslice.

Lastly, and certainly leastly; here's a bunch of random first half awards.
We have about 6 more weeks of regular season fantasy baseball, which should either make you nervous about your chances of getting a playoff spot, or excited at the potential regular season money you can grab. I'll try to be better at posting some more team-by-team oriented stuff but like Francisco Liriano, I will likely continue to be supremely unreliable while showing flashes of brilliance all season long.
