Their All Star selections in '85:
Steve Garvey
Rich "Goose" Gossage
Tony Gwynn
LaMarr Hoyt
Terry Kennedy
Graig Nettles
Garry Templeton

Could be worse, My Tigers won the series in 84' and finished 84-77.
They had 6 All-stars in 85' -
Lou Whitaker
Lance Parrish (replaced by Fisk for injury)
Willie Hernandez
Jack Morris
Dan Petry
Alan Trammell
Also, Darrell Evans finished 14th in AL All Star voting, Kirk Gibson 18th.
Yeah, that was a let down year.
