that meshed well together that La Russa and FO had created.

Carpenter, Molina and Allen Craig all had great years.

Beltran, Holiday and Freese still were contributors and savy vets.

and rotation was stacked with arms: Waino, Martinez, Wacha, Shelby Miller, Joe Kelly and Rosenthal was lights out in the 9th. Siegrest and Maness were really good that year too.
