Starting Rotation |
||
| Player | Trend | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ian Kennedy |
 |
A poor outing from IPK in Colorado - seven hits, four runs (including a HR to Tulo) in just six innings. He did strike out six, though, and walked none. The team later tied it up to save him from the loss. |
| Trevor Cahill |
 |
Cahill had an eerily similar outing, stats-wise - seven hits, four runs (including a HR to CarGo) in just six innings. Carlos Gonzalez was his nemesis yesterday, either driving in or scoring on three of the Rockies' four runs. But Cahill gets just a dash because he had an excellent start on Friday in Miami - eight innings, five hits, one run. |
| Brandon McCarthy |
 |
McCarthy finally got into the win column! Yeah, it's the Marlins, but he pitched an absolute gem. His only run of support was a leadoff home run from Gerardo Parra. Brandon allowed just three hits, and this time pitched the 9th inning to win 1-0. |
| Wade Miley |
|
Tough loss for Wade in Florida on a job fairly well done. He spread five hits through six innings, and the only two runs he allowed came on a two-out, two-RBI double in that 6th inning. But the offense couldn't back him up. |
| Patrick Corbin |
|
There are a whole bunch of cool stats about Corbin's three-hit, 10-strikeout in-Coors-Field complete game from Monday. I can't recall them all, but basically, it was an amazing game. And he got a shout-out from Randy Johnson on Twitter to boot. |

| Player | Trend | Notes |
| Heath Bell |
|
Bell hasn't worked since the Atlanta series. |
| Josh Collmenter |
|
Josh pitched one clean inning in Miami in Sunday's loss. |
| Will Harris |
|
Harris gave up one inconsequential run in the 9th inning of Friday's win against the Marlins. In yesterday's loss to the Rockies, he pitched a clean 8th inning, striking out two. |
| David Hernandez |
|
Hernandez pitched a scoreless 9th inning on Tuesday when the game was tied. |
| Matt Reynolds |
|
Reynolds proved he is, indeed, a human and a not a robot. He gave up two hits (and a useless IBB) in the Rockies' walk-off win on Tuesday in extras. |
| Tony Sipp |
|
Sipp pitched two perfect innings in two Colorado games, striking out three. |
| Brad Ziegler |
|
Ziegler also pitched two perfect innings, one in Florida and one in Colorado, with two strikeouts. |
Starting Lineup |
||
| Player | Trend | Notes |
| Gerardo Parra |
|
Parra had four hits in Miami, including that majestic first-pitch home run, but just one double in Colorado. He had eight strikeouts on the week. |
| Didi Gregorius |
|
The Shortstop of the Future™ continues to hit consistently well. Only in Tuesday's loss did he not reach base at all. He hit .348 (8-for-23), two doubles, two RBI and three runs scored. |
| Paul Goldschmidt |
|
Paul had another monster game in the opening of the Marlins series - 4-for-5, two home runs, four RBI! - but after that, he cooled considerably. He had just three hits the rest of the week, and went 0-for-7 the last two games in Colorado. |
| Eric Chavez |
|
Chavez started four of the six games this week plus a pinch-hit. In addition to his fabulous defense at 3B, he continues to hit very well - .450/.450/.700/1.150 on the week! |
| Cody Ross |
|
Ross had another good week, hitting .278/.333/.278/.611. That is 5-for-18 in five games this past week. He drove in two and scored three times. |
| A.J. Pollock |
|
Pollock was hot/cold this week. First he was 0-for-7 in Miami, then in two Colorado games he went 5-for-9. Let's hope the latter performance continues... |
| Martin Prado |
|
Prado seems to be improving, though the numbers don't really show it. He was 3-for-5 in the Miami blow-out, and had a key two-RBI single in the four-run inning in Colorado to tie it. Still, he hit only .208 on the week, and just a .217 BABip. |
| Miguel Montero |
|
Miggy is still struggling along the same lines as Prado.. just 4-for-19 and one RBI, though at least his BABip was up to .250. |
Bench |
||
| Player | Trend | Notes |
| Eric Hinske |
|
Hinske was 0-for-2 in two pinch-hit appearances. |
| Jason Kubel |
|
Kubel has been partially sidelined with a sore quad (again), but in three starts he hit .273 with three RBI. |
| Wil Nieves |
|
Nieves started the series finale against his former team, the Rockies, and continued to hit well against them - 2-for-4 and drove in Arizona's only run. |
| Cliff Pennington |
|
Pennington hasn't been able to get in the lineup. On Sunday, he went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts. Ouch. |
| Josh Wilson |
|
Wilson went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's finale, plus a walk as a pinch hitter Tuesday night. |
Disabled List |

| Player | Trend | Notes |
| Willie Bloomquist |
 |
Willie is done with Extended Spring Training and is heading up to Triple-A Reno this weekend. |
| Adam Eaton |
 |
Eaton had a major setback this week. He had started playing the field in his rehab games when he felt elbow soreness again. MRI results show a strain, not a tear, of the UCL. He will strength train for 2-3 weeks and begin throwing again after that. |
| Aaron Hill |
 |
Hill still has not taken off the wrist brace. |
| Daniel Hudson |
|
Hudson faced live batters last week, throwing four innings against Angels minor-leaguers. |
| J.J. Putz |
|
J.J. is still in the resting phase of waiting out his injury. |
