Diamondbacks Gameday Thread: 3/13 vs. Cubs

PrintIt was just announced that Zach Duke won't even throw again for four weeks, due to to broken bones in his pitching hand after getting hit by a line-drive in yesterday's game. Obviously, it sucks, and I wish Zach all the best for his recovery from this freak injury. But I suspect I am not the only one whose first thought on hearing the news was, "Well, that's one less decision needed about the Opening Day roster?" But will it be Aaron Heilman or Barry Enright who get the call as Duke's replacement? Enright has the better raw numbers, and using him would not create another hole (the bullpen in Heilman's case), so I would be leaning that way.
Today, we face half of the Cubs as SRF@TS, which will no doubt see ten gazillion people crammed in there as a result, plus the countless millions more tuning in on Fox Sports Arizona. Because the Cubs are the engine of the Cactus League, after all [insert image of dead Cubbie being whacked with a stick here]. Line-up after the jump.
- Stephen Drew SS
- Kelly Johnson 2B
- Justin Upton RF
- Russell Branyan 1B
- Chris Young CF
- Brandon Allen LF
- Ryan Roberts 3B
- Henry Blanco C
- Daniel Hudson RHP
Interesting to see this line-up, with Branyan at first, and Allen patrolling left-field. Could this be a foreshadowing for the eventual dismissal, down the road, of Xavier Nady? We would have to eat his deal, but Nick Piecoro reported that our outfielder "still hasn’t really come around," and his line has been an anemic .226/.250/.387, a .637 OPS Especially if his throwing arm is not good enough for the outfield, what is his value to the team? With Branyan make a strong case to be the bench slugger, it still seems that there are more questions than answers - and, certainly, more players than spots available, as we head in to the second-half of spring.
So, how would you construct the roster? We'll be talking about that more tomorrow, since it's an off-day, but thoughts and comments are welcome as we go through today's game.

Wooooooo baseball
Yesterday’s game was on FSRM but I didn’t know it until the 6th. :(

Duke
His injury is really unfortunate, but yes, it makes things easier for the opening roster. Given Enright’s continued lights out performance, he deserves a shot to continue his sabermetric-defying results.
"Baseball fans are junkies, and their heroin is the statistic." Robert S. Wieder
Agreed,
but I don’t quite understand why Galarraga is being given every opportunity to pitch ahead of Heilman.
Mr. Science Boy
Don't think Heilman will be bypassed
if he continues to out pitch the competition.
Unless
the FO is convinced that they want him in the bullpen.

I wouldn’t want to be the one to break that news to him if he earns a spot.
Oi hi there
Is this where we can talk about baseball? ;)
Been watching from afar with a bit of discomfort over the performance level of some of our summer acquisitions, hoping it’s just a spring thing….
Anyway here’s to a morale boosting win over the Cubs.

Hey Jim, it's Allen patrolling left-field, not right-field.
If at first you don't succeed, try left field.

by DbacksSkins on Mar 14, 2011 12:43 AM EDT up reply actions
It was guaranteed when he signed the contract
It was either because it’s a contract with an option year (mutual option) or because it was a deal that was signed to avoid arbitration that made Duke’s contract different from Galarraga’s… can’t remember, though. But Duke’s has always been guaranteed, Galarraga’s has not.

2-1 Cubs, Mid 3rd
B. Scales strikes out. J. Adduci strikes out looking. B. Looper singles to RF. F. Perez walks. Barney hits a RBI ground rule double to RF, scoring Looper. M. Byrd reaches on an error by 3B, scoring Perez. Ramirez flies to LF.
2 runs, 2 hits, 1 error, 2 LOB
Well there's your problem!
seriously though....
Hudson’s such a beast….his stuff is amazing….
fastball command is plus. can locate anywhere in the zone.
changeup just drops, generates tons of swing and misses.
slider is still coming along, but shows flashes of amazingness.
and i mean…c’mon…the guy throws above-average to plus pitches at three different velocities……how do you hit that?
