John Agnello holds the lead in our last August email update. The AL strikeouts category demands our attention this week, with Gerrit Cole trailing fellow Astro Justin Verlander by just one K... Cole gaining the lead would move Daltry-Lovejoy into first by virtue of HBP tiebreaker. Verlander and Cole pitch at home Tuesday and Wednesday against the Rays.

Mallex Smith’s stolen base in the 3rd inning last Tuesday night not only led to the Mariners’ first run in Detroit, but also put John Agnello on top in the 2019 MLB Predictions Pool. Aroldis Chapman’s six-save lead over Brad Hand along with Adalberto Mondesi’s continued absence from the basepaths could make John’s lead difficult to challenge...

Danton Boller has dominated the pool for the entire month of August, but a few tight categories could make things interesting:

- Mallex Smith has already tied Adalberto Mondesi (IL, shoulder) in AL steals; an outright lead for Smith puts John Agnello in first.
- Jacob deGrom has matched the injured Max Scherzer in NL strikeouts (giving Amy Gill a unique pick point!); Scherzer losing the lead would move Daltry/Lovejoy up a notch in the standings.
- teammates Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole are one-two in nearly every AL pitching category, so lots of possibilities down the stretch here...
- Christian Yelich, Jeff McNeil and Bryan Reynolds are splitting hairs vying for the NL batting title (today Reynolds edges Yelich .33538 to .33501), with Danton and John both benefitting from a Yelich lead.
- Brad Hand is two saves behind AL leader Aroldis Chapman; a Hand lead puts Jud and Michael back in contention, but still behind Danton in HBPs.

Justin Verlander’s gem against Seattle shuffles our standings around a bit, but Danton Boller stays on top. Verlander not only takes over for new NLer Trevor Bauer in the AL IP category, but also expands his leads atop the wins and ERA races.
