Arizona Diamondbacks news, 7/5: Here’s to the next 250
Recaps [AZ Central] Del Castillo’s blast, Kelly’s new look ignite Diamondbacks in victory – “I wanted to come out aggressive today and just kind of let it fly,” Kelly said. “Just kind of let the chips fall where they may. Not try to be too fine or too precise. “Just be aggressive and get back […]
Diamondbacks 4, Milwaukee 3: A Win for AMERICA!
On paper, I think this was the toughest of this weekend’s matchups against the Milwaukee Brewers, who came into yesterday with the second best record in the Major Leagues. Brandon Woodruff took the mound for the Brew Crew (2-1, 2.59 ERA before today) while Merrill Kelly, who has not been great this year, was going […]
Corbin Carroll and Eduardo Rodriguez named to NL All-Star roster
The National League All-Star roster was announced tonight. The inclusion of Corbin Carroll wasn’t really a surprise. He gets his third selection in four years, coming into tonight ranked 6th for bWAR among position players in the league, at 3.3 wins. But in addition, Eduardo Rodriguez was also named to the squad, and that’s a […]

Snake Bytes 7/4: Will There Be Fireworks Tonight?
Diamondbacks News Diamondbacks Go Toe-to-Toe with Brewers, Fall in 11thJose Cabrera simply did not have his good stuff last night. Neither did the offense, who made a great comeback from being three down. But then they simply could not push the winning run across and the bullpen finally stumbled when the 11th rolled around. Can […]
Diamondbacks 4, Brewers 7: We Blinked First
Game Summary Tonight, the Diamondbacks went toe-to-toe with one of the best teams in baseball and nearly beat them at their own game. Great defense and great pitching, especially from the bullpens, was the story of this game and the loser of this was whoever blinked first. Unfortunately, it was the Diamondbacks who came up […]

Arizona Diamondbacks Series Preview # 29: Diamondbacks vs Brewers
The Brewers care about when to challenge ball/strike calls. In spring training, they tested a system that involved green index cards that were posted in the dugout in the best situations to challenge. Apparently, MLB told them to stop posting cards. An unique suspension. Brewers relief pitcher Abner Uribe was suspended for one game (served […]
Arizona Diamondbacks: July confidence poll
Well, I’m back. No more balmy 70 degree days and pleasing trips to look for bison and gaze at geysers. Wyoming was very pleasant, and I thoroughly enjoyed the disconnect for a few days. Many thanks to James and Justin for keeping things ticking over in my absence! Normal service is now being resumed… June […]

Team News D-backs’ undefeated run vs. Giants ends as Gallen searches for answers“Zac was really good for the early parts of this game,” manager Torey Lovullo said. “I thought he was driving his fastball into the right parts of the zone.” Said Gallen, “I felt like we were pretty much in control.”……………………………………………………….“I think I had […]
Giants Finally End Skid with 6-4 Triumph
I’ve always loved the idea of a “stopper” in a baseball rotation – a guy who can be counted on to stop a losing streak or provide a much-needed win in a crucial part of the season. In my mind, it’s a different role than an ace who might be expected to provide a specific […]

Snake Bytes: 7/1 Pfaadt Returns with Solid Outing
Diamondbacks News Brandon Pfaadt Makes Successful ReturnIt was late in being announced, but the utterly foreseeable recall of Brandon Pfaadt put the beleaguered righty back onto the mound to start against the Giants. He gave Arizona all they could have asked for. Pfaadt’s Terrific Return as Good as Could Be Asked by SnakesDespite a limited […]
Giant Win Streak Continues: Dbacks 8, Giants 2
The Dbacks needed a big start from Brandon Pfaadt, and he was able to deliver on Tuesday night in his first start back in the major league rotation. Early on in the game, many fans were quick to note some mechanical changes to Pfaadt’s delivery as he started on the 1st base side of the […]

Banana Cream Pie and Home Games
Inspiration. Mostly out of curiosity, at the convenience market very near my house, I purchased a slice of banana cream pie. It was awesome! And near my home is the only place I would buy a slice of banana cream pie. When they play at home, the Diamondbacks look like a team heading to the […]

Series Preview #28: Giants @ Diamondbacks
After a rough series in Tampa, Arizona comes home to hopefully get right again against the flailing Giants. To say that Arizona had a rough go of things while in Tampa is putting things mildly. After a dreadful road trip, Arizona limps home with a record one game below .500 . They remain third in […]

It was always going to be a rough outing for the Diamondbacks today. The Rays were going for the series sweep that would keep them in possession of first place in the AL East. Tampa sent Drew Rasmussen to the mound, he of the 2.62 ERA. Rasmussen wasted no time in the first inning, getting […]
