    UA - LSU: September 9th

    The offense sure didn't help them out much though (at halftime 10 of the total 24 LSU points came off of UofA turnovers). After the BYU game I was very concerned about the running game and now we can't get positive yards for this game. This was a pathetic, absolutely pathetic display of...

    Dbacks vs. Cards series thread

    Webb (14-6, 3.14 ERA) Vs Jason Marquis (14-13, 5.73 ERA) We need to win this game in order to keep Webb in the running for the Cy Young award. It really is depressing that Marquis has as many wins as Webb does. Also something to note, Steve Trachsel is 14-6 on the year but has an ERA about...

    I would like to see Nippert come up and contribute next year. Hopefully Tucson can win tomorrow too!

    Dbacks vs. Nationals series thread

    Julio gives up a two run homer to Soriano to tie the game in the ninth. The bullpen gives up 5 runs in the final two innings and blows a good game by Batista and Young (5 RBIs).

    Down on the farm

    I disagree. While Micah is having a great year, he has no where near the potential of some of our other players. If Young gets more playing time (thus no longer considered a prospect) I would list our top 5 as follows: #1. Carlos Gonzalez #2. Justin Upton #3. Miguel Montero #4. Micah Owings...

    How would Bob Melvin score?

    If it would be a question of how I would grade Melvin as a manager... I would give him a 'F'. Simply because he might be the worst coach in D'backs' history (Al Pedrique included) or perhaps the worst for young players.

    Shawn Green to Mets?

    Not to mention that he totaled 72 (I believe that is the correct total) HBP in 2005 and 2004. Q just needs time to adjust to the Majors. I think we are all expecting way too much from him since he came right up to the bigs during a hot streak and tore it up. He will be a good outfielder (much...

    Shawn Green to Mets?

    I had heard that they are waiting to see how Cliff Floyd's situation is expected to be before they make a decision.

    Dbacks vs. Rockies series thread

    My guess is that Melvin is playing a right-handed batter against a left-handed pitcher without taking into account that the sub cannot hit at all.

    from baseball prospectus: Ouch. Must have been a scout from the Dodgers... but if you think about it, Carlos has done a great job especially since he is 20-years old! That is extremely young for the league that he is in.

    A Clockwork Orange as a film was a piece of garbage when compared to the book.

    Most Over Rated Movie

    A horrible movie and it was made worse when everyone would quote it. John Heder is probably the worst actor to ever have a hollywood movie. All he can do is act like an idiot because that is what he is.

    How to you like the roster this season?

    I would add the Vargas and Enrique to the ho-hum (mainly because I didn't expect too much more than they are doing) and Nippert to the disappointed (because I can no longer see him as a major league pitcher with any kind of potential).

    Shawn Green to Mets?

    According to WFAN in New York, the deal is done. All that is needed is for Green to waive his no-trade clause. Apparently, the D'backs will be recieving minor league LHP Evan MacLane. Evan was the #30 prospect in a weak Mets organization and does not seem like a major leaguer. His fastball...

    Shawn Green to Mets?

    I do not to get anyone's hopes up but I found this quote on the Met's ESPN Message Board: The boards have also reported that we are going to pay about half of his remaining salary (around 6-7 million for this year and next) and that the D'backs Front Office is asking for Bannister in return...

    It's not our Eddie Johnson...

    I have always thought that Skip Bayless was a pathetic hack who shouldn't be on ESPN let alone employed by any newspaper.

    Diamondbacks get Livan Hernandez in trade

    I can't say that I agree with this move (but then again, who really agrees with anything Melvin does). Besides one start, Cruz has been pretty solid even if he does not go many innings. I would much rather have Vargas go to the pen or be designated for assignment.

    Diamondbacks get Livan Hernandez in trade

    Mock had nothing but potential and it did not seem that he was going to ever reach it. On the other hand, Chico pitched pretty well for this organization and might become an okay #3 starter in the major. However, neither of these guys are a sure bet. I have to be honest; I do not like the...
