SnakeBytes 4/26: Travel Day Edition

Let's just leave it all behind. That game, done. We're in an off-day. Just relax.

Well, leave it behind after the recaps. Sorry.

Recaps:

• [Dbacks.com] Sputtering D-backs fall to Phillies - So, from one of our best franchise start to our worst home stand since 2010.
• [FS Arizona] Games, players lost on miserable homestand - I think this headline sums it all up pretty well.
• [AZ Central] Philadelphia Phillies' Cole Hamels shuts down Arizona Diamondbacks - Of course, when your team is trying to recover from offensive struggles, Cole Hamels is not the guy you want to see out on the mound against you.
• [Philly.com] Hamels leads Phillies over Diamondbacks - The Phillies say they think things are starting to click. Hopefully the DBacks will start to put it together soon, too.

Okay, now leave it behind. Move on. Hit the jump.

DBacks News:

• [DBacks.com] Rehabbing Hudson to work out in Phoenix - Probably for the best- I'm sure the team is happier with him getting care in Phoenix, rather than with more limited facilities on the road.
• [FS Arizona] Possible changes brewing in D-backs rotation - The DBacks haven't said who will start on Sunday or Monday, where Wade Miley and Josh Collmenter would be scheduled to pitch. We'll see how things shake out.
• [Venom Strikes] Cody Ransom is Pushing Ryan Roberts at Third Base - I don't know if I'd call Ryan Roberts's start nightmarish, but Cody Ransom has performed well in his appearances.
• [The Outside Corner] The Arizona Diamondbacks learn the dangers of Twitter the hard way - Seriously, it's like people really believe that the Diamondbacks don't have filter what shows up on the jumbotron. I'm sure, instead, whoever decides what to post got to laugh at some more variety than the usual "At the ballpark with @someoneelse" tweets they always get.
• [AZ Central] Arizona Diamondbacks' Jason Kubel leading the way in assists - Well, I doubt he'll keep up this pace, but... It is nice to see him playing well out there.

Around Baseball:

• [Gaslamp Ball] Cole Hamels was signed to a lifetime contract by the Padres for $1 as an infant - Well, I guess this explains- nothing, really, but it's entertaining.
• [Huffington Post] Baseball's Brand of Revenge Models Ancient Blood Feuds - You know, I was just thinking that it had been a while since someone over-dramatized baseball..
• [Baseball Nation] Which Teams Have The Biggest Beef With The Unbalanced And Interleague Schedules This Season? - Fortunately, we're not one of them.
• [HardballTalk] There were three ninth inning rallies today - So if anyone felt we needed a ninth inning rally, you've had three. Jenny.
• [Miami Herald] Padres place P Owings on DL - Strained right forearm for the former DBack.
