Denard Span is now in his sixth year in the Twins organization. The 2003 first round draft choice out of the Tampa area has long been discussed as the replacement for Torii Hunter once Hunter departed. For most of the past six years, Span has failed to live up to that potential offensively as he struggled at the plate and spent a lot of time performing like a number nine hitter rather than an impact centerfielder hitting leadoff. Those struggles led the Twins to acquire Carlos Gomez as the centerpiece of the Johan Santana trade because of Gomez's offensive potential and impact on defense. Nearly four months through the 2008 season, Span is finally translating potential into results and has been a huge part of the Twins 22-8 record over their last 30 games which has once again catapulted them into the pennant race against all odds.

Mets fans were ready to throw Pelfrey into the Hudson many times in the last twelve months, even as recently as May 26th after he lost his sixth straight decision. While Mets fans were stewing about Pelfrey, and the overall team's performance, both have gotten much better and are on strong winning streaks. The Mets closed out the first half winning nine straight, but that is what was expected from the team that has mainly underperformed this year. However, Mike Pelfrey winning six straight decisions after losing six straight earlier this year was not expected and has Mets fans and fantasy owners beaming proudly.
