Players of the Week, 5/12-18: Justin Haley & Brandon Snyder
A week after getting roughed up in his piggy-back start against Carolina (CLE), Haley got a shot at redemption May 16 at Carolina, working seven shutout innings and allowing only four baserunners to reach, striking out nine opposing batters and earning the win en route to SoxProspects.com Pitcher of the Week honors. Haley, 22, was a sixth-round pick in 2012.
Season Line: 8 G, 8 S, 3-1, 1.82 ERA, 34 2/3 IP, 26 H, 7 ER, 12 BB/30 K, .213 BAA

Brandon Snyder, 3B, Pawtucket Red Sox - 4 G, 15 AB, 17 PA, 8 H, 3 HR, 1 2B, 3 R, 6 RBI, 2 BB/3 K, .533/.588/1.200
Snyder literally powered his way to the top of the SoxProspects.com Player of the Week polling, hitting home runs in three of four games and recording multi-hit games in the same three out of four. He saved the best for last, going 3 for 4 with a home run and a double and knocking in four runs May 17 against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (NYY).
Season Line: .219/.296/.510 (21 for 96), 8 HR, 4 2B, 9 BB/37 K, 27 G
