Always get a little uneasy whenever we face a lefty, even though we have a lot of new faces in our lineup. This feels like the one game in the series that could be a loss. I feel good about winning the series.
Chourio had a good weekend so hopefully he's starting to heat up and Black has been good, but for the most part, there hasn't been a whole lot to get excited about.
And many people don't visit Vegas in the middle of summer, which makes up the bulk of the baseball season. I'll be interested to see what kind of crowds they get in June, July and August every season.
I think this is spot-on. As a side note, really sucks for Mitchell who just cannot stay healthy. If you follow the minor leagues closely, you’ll know that Mitchell was hurt a ton.
Other than maybe Black and Moore, I can’t think of any positional prospects who are playing really well right now. A lot of guys slumping to start the season.
SMALL SAMPLE ALERT but I hope starting Chourio in AA wasn’t being too aggressive. Had a couple of hits his first game but the strikeouts have been piling up since. I was concerned starting him in AA as a newly turned 19-year old was a bit aggressive and was wondering if he should have started the first month or so in Appleton. Hope I’m way wrong!
Much like the Brewers, the Dbacks have a young and exciting core of position players. I really, really like their outfielders. They are close to contending at this point. This is going to be a tough series.
