Cut...paste...change a 7 to an 8, and today's Gameday Thread is ready to go, as we play the Rockies for the fourth time in eleven days, with two more to go before the season starts. Yet we face the rest of the NL West only six times in total: guess it's the Tucson mafia, since we go up against the White Sox six times too.
Expected to pitch for Arizona are Shawn Estes, Jose Valverde and Jon Cannon: the first two have been wobbly to date, while Cannon has been impressive, though is still a long-odds bet for a bullpen spot.
