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.

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.

Montero spelling Snyder at Catcher

I think Reynolds is even LESS of a defensive liability @ 1st, and actually does a pretty decent job there. Roberts just HITS. :shock:

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. :lol: :lol: :lol:

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.

You could end up buying me TWO drinks, or vice versa, or round one on me, round two on you.

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.
