The turnover was amazing for a team vying for a pennant, but of course the core of the team was terrific, with good hitting at almost ever position, solid pitching, an inspirational young manager, etc. Earl McNeely actually got the winning hit, and he's a prime example of a player plugged into a key position in the heat of the pennant race without so much as a cup of coffee in the bigs.

Whoops! McNeely of course. I stand corrected.
