But the larger point is right: a lot of players had to overperform expectations over the whole season (Torres) or just the postseason (Renteria) to get here.

Who are they?

Let’s also add last year’s # 1 hitter being a non-factor, a SS who hit 3 HR’s all season hitting 2 in 5 games in the WS, etc..

Despite it all, as I said last night, for a short series the pitching, and it’s still a young staff, was everything a manager, GM or fan could dream it to be.
