To answer my own question, 61. And I'm sure some of them have to be better than yesterday's game, right?
Recaps:
-
[dbacks.com] Jackson can't keep up with Doc in loss - Plenty of quotes here, but pretty much all of them about the Phillies. Want to hear about Halladay or Brown? You're good.
-
[azcentral.com] Roy Halladay leads Philadelphia Phillies over Arizona Diamondbacks - I suppose it's fitting, though, because the Diamondbacks didn't do much worth noting.
-

[philly.com] Phenom Joins the Fun - Fun for the Phillies, that is. We didn't see too much fun.
Whew. Okay, after the jump, some actual links about the Diamondbacks, notes on a few former DBacks managers, and news from the Capital.

-
[politico.com] Jim Bunning brushes back Stephen Strasburg - The senator from Kentucky doesn't want to hear Strasburg's whining. Strasburg has been moved to the 15-day DL, which I believe means he won't be making a start when the Natinals visit Arizona.

One last game against the Phillies tonight, and then we head up to New York for a series against the Mets. If you're going to watch today's game, get set to hear a lot about the Phillies' latest move- they just traded for Roy Oswalt from the Astros.
Here's hoping for the best for our guys.
