Baseball is basically a series of individual events

Maybe to the casual observer? But when some guy during his contract year gets more concerned with his numbers he often may play less than good "team" and situational baseball.

Like was said before all of these guys are professionals and have been playing since they were 5. All major league baseball players have some baseball talent or they wouldn't be there. So who succeeds? The team with the jittery manager and a teamful of guys worried about their next contract or getting sent down? Or the happy and loose team who melds as a unit? I go with the happy and loose team approach all day long!
