Player Profile #49: Rickie Weeks | 2B | MIL
Despite missing about a third of last season, Rickie Weeks is not the injury risk he used to be. He’s played more than 129 games just once in his major league career (a scary thought when you consider he’s been in the league since 2005), but he led the league in plate appearances in 2010 and might have done the same last season if not for a freak ankle injury. When we...

Player Profile #190: Jemile Weeks | 2B | OAK
You better not blink because you just might miss him. Jemile, the younger brother of Rickie Weeks, showed us in 2011 exactly what type of value he brings to fantasy — speed. It’s funny because in the minors he had a total of 41 steals in 1018 plate appearances (24.8 PA/SB), but in his rookie season he stole 22 bases in just 437 PA (19.9 PA/SB). He also has the potential...

Weeks' impact in final stretch remains unclear
MILWAUKEE -- Due to theimmense length of the Major League Baseball season, much stock is put in the concept of players developing a rhythm from day to day and thriving on routines to maintain consistency.

The Weeks of the Storm
I just read this. So I wrote this awesome awful average? come on give me average poem.
It's my site, I do what I want.
It is coming and it is loud.
It is strong and it is proud.
It is coming, it has vowed.
It is not a call that can be dropped.
More like a train that will not be stopped.
Or a bubble that just won't pop.
Like a tornado, throwing things around.
Like an earthquake...

Brewers tempted to bring Weeks back early
Milwaukee Brewers all-star second baseman Rickie Weeks may still be two weeks or more away from regular duty, but that might not stop the team from activating him amid the stretch run.
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said before Friday's game with the Houston Astros that the team has had discussions about bringing Weeks back a bit early to serve exclusively as a pinch hitter.

Return timeline key for Weeks to contribute

Just how long the All-Star infielder needs to get back to full health and return to action will be key to just how much he is able to contribute to the Brewers' chase for the National...

Rickie Weeks Shatters His Ankle
Milwaukee Brewers all star Rickie Weeks severely sprained his ankle in last night's game and is promptly being placed on the DL. This was one of the grossest ankle sprains I've ever seen in my life and I've seen some bad ones. This is a huge hit for the Brew-Crew who just took over sole possession of first place last night in the NL central with a win over the Cubs. Weeks...

Young fans share nice moment over baseball
Now that’s how you do it, people. We have had several instances recently where some selfish, despicable and heartless person snatches a ball (or a bat, in one instance) that made its way into the stands away from some other person that to see how a young Arizona Diamondbacks fan named Nicholas restored my faith [...]
