Nice start to the season. Sitting at 4-1, huge 15-inning comeback win last night against the Dodgers and then tonight a nice win against Kershaw with the 5th starter Godley pitching.

No since dating back to last season they've won 9 straight over the dodgers. Corbin strikes out 12 as Diamondbacks sweep Dodgers https://www.thescore.com/mlb/news/1520416" target="_blank

Imagine if they were healthy?
Souza, Lamb, Walker, Miller... all very good players. If we can get the first two back and add depth to the offense and get Miller to be anything for stretch run, we might just be a real player this postseason.
What is Miller’s return timeframe? Is it 2 ful years for TJ? Or around 15 months or so?

Average is 13-15 months but then you have a handful of guys who never make it back to baseball.

Robbie Ray just went out in the 2nd inning with an injury. Brenley thought it might be his oblique muscle, he was grabbing his side.

Imagine if we actually can play out real starting lineup? Imagine if Ray comes back and pitches like last year and Miller returns post All-Star break and gives solid 4/5 Starter innings?
Imagine if Goldschmidt is Goldschmidt again?!

Curious how this team was put together. Was it Larussa? The last GM? How much credit does Chip Hale deserve?

Lots of all over:
Corbin is Dipoto
Pollock and Goldschmidt predate even Dipoto
Ahmed is Towers
Bradley is Towers
Ray is Towers
Lamb is Towers (I think)
Peralta is La Russa/Stewart
Grienke is La Russa
Godley is La Russa (I think)
Miller is La Russa
Souza is current
Descalso is current
Marte is current
Walker is current
Not sure about Owings

Can't complain about the pitching - 2nd in MLB, only the world champs are better:
When are the bats going to wake up (besides Pollock & Peralta), especially Goldy? Need Lamb back ASAP, and a catcher who can hit over the Mendoza line.

Unacceptable by Avila. Release him asap.
That said the pitchers need to focus more after bad calls and errors by the other guys. Seen Greinke and Corbin let big innings go after blown plays calls too often
