MLB stuff (everyone but like 6 people ignore)

The 1991 Astros lineup on the second to last day of the season featured:

Kenny Lofton - age 23, 6 time All Star, #4 in 1994 MVP race
Craig Biggio - age 25, 7 time All Star, #4 in 1997 MVP race
Jeff Bagwell - age 23, 4 time All Star, RoY, MVP
Luis Gonzalez - age 23, 5 time All Star, #3 in 2001 MVP race
Ken Caminiti - age 28, 3 time All Star, MVP
Steve Finley - age, 26, 2 time All Star, #10 in 1996 MVP

Not pitching but also in the pitching rotation were:

Darryl Kile: age 23, 3 time All Star, #5 in 2000 Cy Young/#18 in MVP

Curt Schilling: age 24, 6 time All Star, #2 in three different Cy Young votes, finished 10/10/11 in MVPs those years.

The only three who were not drafted by the Astros were Bagwell, Schilling and Finley.

This team lost 97 games with what has to be in the discussion for the most talented final day of the season roster for a last place team.
