The Diamondbacks have lost 5 games in a row and were just swept by the San Diego Dads. Yesterday’s 5 - 2 loss was painful indeed, but some say not to worry, others like myself refuse to listen to that advice.
Diamondbacks News:
Greinke trade rumor. Bob Nightengale listed Greinke among the Top 10 players who could be moved before the trade deadline. I have listed Mr. Nightengale among the Top 10 people who should shush up.
Dbacks’ offense only scored 5 runs in SD series.
Where is Darnell Coles at? I would like to speak with him. And why can’t we bunt for base-hits? Our team has some speed.
