Wanna root for a fun team to watch? (accent on "team")

Check out the San Francisco Giants! They have only a few real "stars", but they genuinely root for each other's success, and they play as a "team". The manager freely substitutes players in nearly every game, taking advantage of each player's strongest asset -- there are NO big egos to worry about. They play to win -- and they win as a team. Oh, did I mention that they've got the best record in baseball? Go Giants!

They are a great story. The NL version of the Rays
Billy Bean style?
In my 60 years of watching/playing/analyzing baseball, there have only been a few managers who I thought definitely made a significant improvement in their team's record/performance. Gabe Kapler is doing a great job in keeping all of his players ready to perform -- every one of them thinks he can help the team win!
