Brad Penny for Cy Young!!!!

[AzKarl]

The D-Backs are making another guy look like Cy Young . This popgun offense is making me gag. I now can no longer watch on TV and have resorted to internet updates on the web. AHHHHHH!
Is anyone suffering like me out there?

I remember when he was "untouchable" coming through the farm system.

Is it just getting everyone on the same page again after the vets came back? Or, is too much relying on Curt and Randy and they were only in Spring Training form or do they just suck these days on offense??

Maybe the trade will liven things up but RJ needs to go out and beat the young gun tomorrow!!!

Man if we could just score some runs right now we would almost be unbeatable, I love our pitching staff, Dessens looked great out of the pen, and actually I think he has started to put things together in his last few starts. Just a frustrating year up to this point just when we are getting our aces back our bats go on vacation. I really think this team needs to add speed this offseason, its hard to get out of hitting(run scoring) slumps when you don't manufacture runs of any kind.

Excellent point Pinetopred. The D-backs need to dramatically emphasize greater speed in the lineup. Speed is what scores runs. We are not an automatic score from second on a hit and we are one of the few clubs that is not.
