What.. he's not a big enough name to give the player of the week award to by himself????

Wigginton logged 16 hits in 28 at-bats last week, recording a 1.143 slugging percentage, 11 RBIs, 16 hits, 32 total bases. He also tied for the NL lead with four home runs and nine runs scored for the week.

"He's really played well," manager Cecil Cooper said. "I don't think it's just this past week, but it's been an extended period for him. Leading up to the [All-Star] break, I thought he was swinging the bat well, and then he continued. He's been a big part of our resurgence."

Wigginton's on-base percentage of .586 ranked second in the league, and he also recorded two doubles and a triple. And he did it all while playing out of position. The third baseman was originally considered an emergency option in left field when Carlos Lee was deemed done for the year with a finger injury. But the "emergency" tag was lifted after just one game, and since Lee went on the shelf, Wigginton has started every game in left field.
