Dbacks open two game series in LA against the Dodgers, who have been awful on offense this year.

Tonight's match up features Derek Lowe of LA vs Dan Haren of Arizona

Check out this story on Sportsline.com about the D-backs....very complimentary!

Think about this:

Jackson
Drew
Reynolds
Upton
Young
Snyder/Montero

Webb
Haren
Owings

NONE older than 27. All signed for multiple years. This has the makings of a Braves-like dynasty. :o

I've got Webb, Haren, Hudson, Reynolds, Byrnes and Jackson on my fantasy team....had to sell my soul to the devil to get my buddy to trade me Haren & Hudson. Picked up Reynolds & Jackson on the waiver wire, drafted Webby & Byrnes...trying to collect the entire team. :lol: :lol: :lol: May not win the league, but it'd be fun to only have one team to root for!!!

Also put in a bid for Max Scherzer on tonight's waiver wire action.... 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)

Webb is the only pitcher in MLB witn 6 wins. One pitcher in the AL (Wang of NYY) has 5. Micah Owings is among 6 NL'ers (10 in all of MLB) with 4 wins.

8 pitch inning for Haren.

Doubles by Drew and Haren give Dbacks 1-0 lead.

Neither Young or Byrnes could get Haren home.

Another 1-2-3 inning for Haren


Hudson walks, Co-Jack singles, Reynolds double scores both.

Reynolds steals third, Snyder singles him home.

Young leaves runners on second and third stranded.

4-0 Dbacks after 4.
