We've turned the calendar on September and sailed through another week of MLB action, which means it's time for a fresh installment of Bleacher Report's Team of the Week.
In case you're new to the party, these are the players (one per position, including a starting pitcher and designated hitter) who have busted box scores over the past seven days. Forget their overall stats. We're judging them solely on what they accomplished between August 28 and September 3.
To qualify, a player needs at least two starts at the position in question, or at least one start for pitchers.
(Seriously, we're strict about those dates. So before you complain, make sure you aren't remembering a huge game from, say, August 27. Then feel free to sound off.)
Finally, we award bonus points if a strong individual performance led to an uptick in the win column—because as the playoff races heat up, that's what it's all about.
