One player I think who has been overlooked is Gutierrez. He has quietly been above serviceable and has made some key plays.

You did mention him above and one thing I noticed was his in-game adjustment at the plate. Earlier in the game he swung at basically the same pitch but flied out to right b/c he was too far under it. When he nailed it he flattened that swing out and voila!

He's done a good job for us and that's kudos to him, but also the organization for finding and grooming him. I don't think he's an everyday big leaguer yet, but he has been thus far in my opinion.

You overlooked my favorite moment - Santana grinding out an hour-long at-bat in the 8th and making Denny impossibly cranky on the radio because of it.
