Baseball HQ’s Ray Murphy trounced the field in this week’s Tout Daily contest, outpacing second place finisher Rick Wolf by 23 points with ESPN’s Tristan Cockcroft coming in third. Not only did Ray shine Tuesday night, his effort propelled him to the top of the heap in Period 2, earning the BBHQ co-General Manager a Golden Ticket to the Tout Daily Final along with a free t-shirt from Rotowear.
Murphy’s lineup was lead by a pair of AL East arms as Chris Sale and Kevin Gausman were among the top scorers for the contest. However, the real difference makers were mike Zunino and Ehire Adrianza. Ray was the only Tout to click in Zunino and his 2-run HR while only one other chose Adrianza and his pair of two-baggers with a couple of runs and a duo of RBI.
Ray’s Golden Ticket into the Survivor Tournament finals was his first. The other two are awarded to Rotowire’s Clay Link and Mastersball’s Todd Zola, the second for each as they both earned a spot in the finals in Period 1.
Zola continues to sit atop the pack in overall scoring with Link and Fantasy Alarm’s Rick Wolf in the place and show spots. Check to see where your favorite Tout stands on the Leaderboard.
