Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread

Well, they finally got to Greinke. Gave up at least a few runs in the third inning.

CRAPPY SIGNING, I WANT OUR MONEY BACK!!

Kidding, of course.

DBacks win 8-3
They are now 11-3, 2nd in the ST behind the Dodgers who are 9-2

RBI double for Drury who also scored a run
2-run HR for Gosselin

I'm really excited cuz I've got a few Goldy PC cards coming my way! A couple SP autos #d /5 and then a jumbo patch auto #d /10 with a sweet tag.

Can't wait to see! I've got a couple ones I like coming in. It was a slow last month or so (minus the ******* super) but finally picked up a couple decent things.

D-Backs now own the best record in the Cactus League!

 

[death2redemptions]

Very solid first for Corbin
1 IP 0 ER 1 H 0 BB 2 SO

His slider looked great.

 

[death2redemptions]

Leadoff double for Segura! Damn he's hot

 

[death2redemptions]

Flawless 1-2-3 shutdown 2nd inning for Corbin
2 IP 0 ER 1 H 0 BB 3 SO

 

[death2redemptions]

Our offense is so damn hot right now that Patrick Corbin hit a ground rule double his first at-bat this ST.
Quickly to be driven in by an Owings RBI double

 

[death2redemptions]

Wow...Segura with an RBI single. Second hit in 2 innings. He is now 13-for-22 this ST.

 

[death2redemptions]

And Brito with his 2nd hit in 2 innings...

 

[death2redemptions]

And Goldy with his 2nd hit in 2 innings and his 3rd RBI

6-0 DBacks in the 2nd inning with no outs and runner on 2nd.

Brito has been causing all kinds of problems for the opposing team on the base paths. Surely he'll be our 4th outfielder.

 

[death2redemptions]

This is insane...DBacks have 10 hits, scored 7 runs and the Reds have only recorded 3 outs.

Another double for Beef!

 

[death2redemptions]

Corbin is pitching like he's the ace of the staff, not even kidding.
3 IP 0 ER 1 H 1 BB 5 SO

 

[death2redemptions]

He gave up a run but his stuff looked very sharp overall.
4 IP 1 ER 3 H 1 BB 6 SO

His numbers this Spring (the best among the staff)
9 IP 1 ER 7 H 1 BB 10 SO 1.00 ERA 0.89 WHIP 10 SO/9 10.00 K/BB

 

[death2redemptions]

Goldy is 3-for-3

 

[death2redemptions]

You've got to be kidding me...Beef hits his 2nd double of the game.

Wellington has 9 hits this Spring...ALL of them are extra base hits

9-1 DBacks

I gotta think at this point that Brito has the upper hand over Tomas and might actually be the starter, with Tomas at 4th. I think (wishful, perhaps) that the D-back won't just play Tomas because he's being paid more - even as a 4th OF he'll get a bunch of AB's, so I'd much rather see Brito starting. And I just like his name.

Did A.J. play tonight? I remember reading he might be back in action on Wednesday.

They talked to him in the middle of the game but no, he didn't play.

That would be awesome if they gave Brito the starting outfield spot. I've never been a big fan of Tomas.
