I hope -- I sincerely hope -- that this is the turning point for the D'backs becoming aggressive.
Melvin is finally employing the hit-and-run and not changing the batting order every game.
Chip Hale is still taking chances sending runners home in close plays, and it has been working. Even our Catcher, sore nuts and all.
Despite Tony Clark starting slowly with the bat, he is clearly our player-spokesman, rather than Harry High School -- Eric Byrnes.
The defense has been spectacular and steady.
Our bullpen has been helped.
The return of Wally Scherzer will be soon. As long as Melvin inserts him into the starting rotation and doesn't mess with his mind and arm.
A solid group of pinch-hitters, starting with Clark, Montero and Owings.
The Diamondbacks should open up a lead in the weak NL West and leave .333 months and a .500 W-L record behind them.
The pressure is on Melvin, Price and Schu to provide positive leadership. If they do, I'll be

If they have to still hide behind alibis, they should be
from the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Edit: I just picked up on your referring to the tall guys at the beginning of this post.
