    Kevin Towers in retrospect

    I think its fair to say, we are seeing the final days of Kevin Towers career as GM here are coming to an end. Even his biggest supporters here have begun to call for his head. Yet despite this, like all other GMs, Towers has had his highs and lows here. While the verdict is still out on what...

    David Peralta is the real deal

    Joe, not to disagree with you; but Trumbo has proven capability of doing just that in the not to distant past. His OBP has always been lousy and his OPS has been middle of the pack. The one thing he has always brought to the table is ability to hit for power. In his first three full seasons as a...

    Pitchers traded In Last Year

    I will also add David Holmberg to the list. 1-6 record 4.74 era 1.65 WHIP These are his Triple A numbers.. While the key component Arizona got back (player wise) surprisingly retired in Spring Training, and I complained about the lunacy of trading a good prospect to shed salary; this too looks...

    Old School Isn’t Working for the D-backs

    82, you had been a pretty steadfast defender of KT. What led to you finally seeing the light?

    Got to be Sellers!

    Also not to play glass half full but Brownstein hit 28 homers, 95 RBIs and had a .337 average last year in the minors. Granted, it was A ball and I really wonder why the Angels were so willing to let him go for just Thatcher and Campana, but I digress.

    MLB Draft.. Who do you want Arizona to take?

    The draft is under 24 hours away. Who do you want Arizona to select? Who do you see them selecting?

    RIP Don Zimmer :(

    According to reports out of Tampa, Zimmer has passed away at age 83. Sad day in baseball.

    Derrick Hall

    He has 43 homers, 30 stolen bases, a .271 BA and a .351 OBP in his first two seasons in the bigs. I'd hardly call that average at best.

    Derrick Hall

    I don't give a rat's rear end if players have attitudes. As long as they produce on field and stay out of trouble with the law off it, the "bad attitude" nonsense is just that. Barry Bonds was one of the biggest pricks in MLB history. He also was one of the greatest players in MLB history.

    Kevin Tower D'Backs era has been a disaster

    In sports, there is an underlying "what have you done for me lately" mentality. A World Series appearance 16 years ago doesn't hold much water in the here and now. Also being quite frank, that World Series was as much Tony Gwynn and Bruce Bochy as it was KT. Correct, all GM's make stupid...

    2014 season predictions

    Miley can replicate even a portion of his numbers that he's put up in the first two full seasons of his career (3.44 ERA, 1.284 WHIP), Arroyo can give his typical 200 innings with the 1.181 WHIP (and he pitched in an even more hitter friendly ballpark in Cincy than he will be here, so I'm not...

    Bonafacio...

    This is also his fifth team since Arizona traded him; and he was picked up by the Cubs on a minor league deal.

    Didi for Jeff Locke and Tony Sanchez?

    I am going to chalk Locke's second half to inexperience and fatigue as much as anything. If you look at his numbers in the minors, he traditionally has had a very good WHIP and strong K numbers. His biggest concern to me has always been his K to Walk ratio, and his numbers last year did nothing...

    Didi for Jeff Locke and Tony Sanchez?

    The Pirates have a young SS in Jordy Mercer who has some nice potential but his splits suck. Clint Barmes is garbage. I don't think they have a thinness of SS to where they need to get urgent for him but I think they could use another one just in case. You are correct on the Mets. They are bare.

    New Cubs Spring Training Facility

    Gorgeous stadium. Better than a majority of minor league facilities out there.

    Didi for Jeff Locke and Tony Sanchez?

    Rumor has it the Pirates and Diamondbacks are in talks for a trade which would send Didi Gregorious to Pittsburgh for Jeff Locke and Tony Sanchez. Thoughts on these two?

    Reds-Rays-Diamondbacks pull three team trade

    I admittedly was a fan of this deal when Glassmann was announced as the PTBNL. I also didn't suspect he was going to quit the damn sport before Spring Training. Rough.

    Didi to the Mets???

    Rafael Montero. If KT can land him for Didi, that'd be highway robbery. Kid has potential to be a high end starter, and is still young and under team control for awhile.

    Price also has a high probability of walking in two seasons.
