Another week of MLB action is in the books, 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, plus a 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 14 and August 20.
(Seriously, we're strict about those dates. So before you complain in the comments, make sure you aren't remembering, say, a monster game from August 13—then feel free to sound off.)
To qualify, a player needs at least two starts at the position in question, or at least one start for pitchers. Speaking of which, we're only considering starting hurlers—sorry, relievers.
Finally, we award bonus points if a strong individual performance led to notches in the win column—because as the summer slides along and the playoff races heat up, that's what it's all about.
