    ^How do you suggest we get Wily some PT? 1B over Miranda, and try to trade him?

    2011 Diamondbacks Thread

    We really needed that. Wily Mo!!! I think it would do wonders to have a 7th inning guy who we can put in these positions if Hernandez and Putz need that rest. I like some of the other guys we have in the bullpen, but not yet to have in those situations. Let's see if Towers does anything about...

    I believe in this team, but it's clear we need the All-Star Break now...Hopefully we can stop the bleeding here and get a lucky win after blowing it yet again. So disappointing.

    Tall Tales of Paul Goldschmidt

    I've heard that AA is better as well. However, even though Kevin Towers mentioned he'd bring up a player from A-ball if he was ready, he also mentioned that he'd prefer to have him go to AAA first. This was on the Doug and Wolf show a couple weeks ago...If that's the next step for him, then...

    Down 0-4, down 3-6, and then we come back to win. This team just doesn't quit! There were some bad mistakes made throughout the game for sure, but this was an impressive win.

    Gibby, Tram, Putz & Collmentor back in Mi.

    I'm stealing this...love that quote! It'll be a tough series with us having to face Verlander and sending out the bottom three of our starting rotation, but I love the attitude going in.

    We need Paul Konerko

    lol, I love this ^ I think we win the division without Konerko, but we do need some bullpen help right now. I'd like to see us bring in Wood as was discussed in the past, and it would also be great to see Goldschmidt and Parker get some experience in the majors this season. I think if we play...

    Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals

    I was rooting for Vancouver. I love how they play and one of my good friends is the most passionate sports fan I've ever met...I was hoping they'd do it for him. Oh well, I enjoyed this series and Tim Thomas was absolutely amazing throughout.

    He's been good all year, but that was an awful call! It's pretty clear that the Giants are still a step ahead of us...Towers needs to hurry up and bring in Kerry Wood, and send Goldy up to AAA for a little bit.:) I was looking at the Giants' schedule, and boy do they have it easy for the next...

    DBacks need an impact hitter

    I think we certainly have a lot of work to do when it comes to our hitting. We still leave way too many on base. However, we are seventh in the majors in runs scored, unless I read something wrong. We also are second in the division in BA, although that isn't the most impressive achievement. I...

    Haha, probably, but I believe he's a free agent after this year, and the Cubs are pitiful. That team will be blown up this off-season. They might as well get something from him while they can.

    2011 Diamondbacks Thread

    So, I haven't seen this posted anywhere, but both Sportscenter and our local radio have said that the DBacks have interest in Kerry Wood. It would be slightly disappointing if it was our only move. However, we do desperately need that 7th inning reliever as we saw how weak the bullpen could look...

    Justin Upton is a huge disappointment!

    So, I think he's going to be here for a while. :) I want to see him get a sixth hit tonight. Let's get to 20!

    Justin Upton is a huge disappointment!

    Upton reads ASFN! I think he answered everyone tonight, and now he just needs to keep this same approach going forward. It's clear how much more productive he can be when he just tries to make good contact as you guys have been saying. This team is going to do some big things if he can be...

    Sun Devil Baseball 2011

    I figure they'd ban us for the next postseason. This is a bit ridiculous. It's almost worse to have this just hanging over our heads...just make the decision.

    Sun Devil Baseball 2011

    So...I heard ASU baseball is hosting a regional. I thought we weren't going to be able to play in the postseason, but I guess they haven't made the ruling yet? I'm really hoping we can finally get it done this year with yet another top 10 team.

    Best Pizza Joint in Town

    Has anyone been to Mellow Mushroom, on Mill Ave.? I'm no expert on pizza, but I thought it was pretty good and they have some really interesting pizzas on their menu that I'll definitely be going back to try. It was a little pricey for me, $20 for a 10' pizza, iced tea, and a 20% tip, but...

    If it holds up after tonight's game, we have the second highest batting average in our division, ahead of the Giants and Rockies. :D With how bad we've been, that's very surprising.

    Worst ASU recruiting class ever?

    I met Mo Latu last night, and I have to say that it's refreshing to meet someone so excited to be coming to our school. I love the guy's attitude compared to Peat, who was also there. I pretty much talked to him about his experiences in high school and why he chose ASU over Oregon (I guess our...

    2011 Diamondbacks Thread

    It's shocking the difference you see in Hudson from the first inning and afterwards. If you take out the 1st, the guy is one of the best #2 pitchers in the league right now. He really needs to learn how to start the game better and not put us in a hole from the get-go. Edit: Sometimes I really...

    I definitely am happy with the direction we're going. And one thing I was going to mention about Putz, it's nice to have a closer who can actually pitch in a non-closing situation and for more than an inning. Awesome. And I hope what Collmenter showed us is a sign of things to come for...

    2010-2011 season thread

    We've put ourselves in a hole here. As mad as I was, I have to say that Detroit played some beautiful hockey in the first two periods. Yotes showed us in the end that we could keep up with them. Bryz has made some mistakes, but if he can be on his game and not give up the easy ones at least, we...

    Sun Devils: New Uniforms, etc.

    My point is that black unis ARE "in." And it has created some excitement around campus. I agree with you that it's all temporary and only winning matters. I've said that a couple times...I think this was done at exactly the right time to build up towards the season, because I believe we have a...

    Sun Devils: New Uniforms, etc.

    Also, I recognize the fact the new uniforms won't affect recruiting without wins, but here's an example of what I'm talking about when I say black is in: http://arizonastate.scout.com/2/1064096.html
