Week one is in the books for 2014 in the Longball League. There were hot starts, fair starts and some stumbles out of the gate, but just remember that the marathon has just begun.
Who's Hot/ Who's Not This Week
Hitters:
Hot: Mark Trumbo- ARI: The former Angel had a 5 HR, 13 RbI week for the D-backs.
Not: Edwin Encarnacion- TOR: A 0-0 week is not a good thing... ever.
Pitchers:
Hot: Felix Hernandez- SEA: A two win, 19 K week rocks!
Not: Clayton Kershaw- LAA: He hasn't played a game that's mattered yet in America this year.
