2018 Arizona Diamondbacks

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Tue Apr 03, 2018 10:06 pm

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, they've won three straight. They lost the three before that.

6-1 now with a 3-1 road win over the Cardinals.

The back and forth between Hater and Greg is amazing. It's like me trying to explain to my toddler how to drink from a cup without spilling and he swears he's not spilling when there's juice all over the damn floor.

Nice one hitter by Corbin last night, but this sucks:

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sun Apr 22, 2018 3:56 pm

First NL team since 2003 to win first 7 series.

JMarkJohns · Post by **JMarkJohns** » Sun Apr 22, 2018 5:16 pm

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?

Jefe · Post by **Jefe** » Mon Apr 23, 2018 3:43 pm

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

I am thinking All Star Break we will see Miller in the pen

Kind of weird watching the game on Facebook Watch but not too bad when you mute the comments and reactions.

They win it today. 8 straight series wins to start the season.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sat Apr 28, 2018 4:22 pm

Make it 9.

In the NL. Seattle won 11 in a row in 2001

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sun Apr 29, 2018 7:46 am

Going to be tough to get to 11. Next two against the World Series participants.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sun Apr 29, 2018 8:52 am

After today the next 9 games are against last year's world series teams.

That weekend series against the Astros should be a lot of fun.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sun Apr 29, 2018 11:13 am

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.

That should about clinch the division for you guys

8-5 win over the Dodgers.

Pollock with 3 HRs

Crazy where this team is at after trading Martinez, all the injuries, and the sub-par effort from Goldy so far

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Tue May 01, 2018 10:05 pm

Make it 10 series won to start the season.

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?!

My bad. 10 straight non-losing series.

They take the series from the Astros after splitting a four game series with the Dodgers.

12 straight non-losing series.

Ended up 5-4 against the Dodgers and the Astros. I'll take it.

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

I'm guessing he must be good with the pitchers because I'm not seeing anything else.

Can someone explain to me why the Backs are using a humidor for home games?

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Sun May 13, 2018 12:55 pm

Can't complain about the pitching - 2nd in MLB, only the world champs are better:

http://www.espn.com/mlb/stats/team/_/stat/pitching" target="_blank

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.

I hope he gets released tomorrow. He's batting about a buck ten.

PHXCATS · Post by **PHXCATS** » Sun Jun 17, 2018 8:23 pm

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

Fight at the bat rack tonight - 19 runs, going to the top of the 8th.
