Turns out Conor Jackson has Valley Fever - probably will be useless for the entire year.

Dbacks hang on to win 6-5 last night, as Max Scherzer goes 7 strong innings.
Bullpen almost blows the second straight 6 run lead.

There's going to be a lot of that this year unless Byrnes does so$ething to shore up that bullpen.dbackjon wrote:Dbacks hang on to win 6-5 last night, as Max Scherzer goes 7 strong innings.

Yup. Rauch is worthless. I hope Zavada sticks - he has potential

I REALLY like the lineup they put out there last night, with ONE exception. Get Young out of CF, and let Parra play it. Keep Roberts @ 3rd and Reynolds @ 1st. That's their best offensive lineup.
Lopez
Parra
Upton
Reynolds
Roberts
Byrnes
Drew
Snyder

Agreed - Parra instead of Young, Roberts at third, Reynolds at first. Very good lineup.AZGrizFan wrote:dbackjon wrote:Dbacks behind Dan Haren beat the Braves last night!!

Re: Official 2009 Arizona Diamondbacks Season Thread
I think Reynolds is even LESS of a defensive liability @ 1st, and actually does a pretty decent job there. Roberts just HITS.dbackjon wrote:Agreed - Parra instead of Young, Roberts at third, Reynolds at first. Very good lineup.AZGrizFan wrote:

Re: Official 2009 Arizona Diamondbacks Season Thread
D-Backs call up Mark Schlereth's kid today from AA Mobile, a lefty reliever....

....and Doug Slaten was optioned to AAA Reno.
I think half the team that started the season for Mobile is now on the 25 man roster.

After giving up 5 runs in the 9th to allow San Diego to tie the game, the bottom of the bullpen combines for a nine-inning no-hitter as Arizona beats San Diego 9-6 in 18 innings.
Dbacks are now 8-0 all time in games longer than 13 innings.

Dbacks win second straight over KC, scoring 12 runs each game.
Bad news - Chris Young, finally breaking out of slump, pulled up lame with a groin injury suffered while legging out a triple.
