Diamondbacks News:

Luke Weaver sharp in spring debut.

Weaver pitched a backfield game against a visiting Korean team that is in town for Spring Training. Weaver would not allow a run in 2 innings and gave up just 1 walk and 1 hit. Weaver is trying to refine his curve ball and had this to say

Dbacks 5 Padres 5

Late innings bullplosion lead by Payamps and Scribner ended the Dback’s chances for the win.

Brito, Clarke provide depth options for the Diamondbacks

Clarke I can definitely see as depth. As far as Socrates goes, now that there is a huge question make over Jarrod Dyson, Brito may get even more of a chance to prove to the team that he is Major League worthy. If not, he is out of options.

No urgency behind Dbacks ballpark search

Please don’t move to Scottsdale/Reservation - I like riding the train to the game, I like Seamus McCaffery’s pregame drinks and fun, I like downtown Phoenix.
