Arizona Diamondbacks Collector/Talk Thread

A question for you fellow dback fans. Where do you see Ketel Marte fitting in? He is tearing up AAA (13 game hit streak, leading league in AVG and runs), however, there is a big road block in the way (a hot Chris Owings/Brandon Drury).

Wanted to mention one last time that we're in first place before this game begins. May be my last opportunity with the D-Backs facing the Nats and all (although we did win yesterday).

Tough to say. It may take an injury or one of the two going into a really deep slump in order for him to get called back up. The issue with him getting the call right now is that he won't get regular playing time which could potentially hurt his development (even if he is 23 with previous ML experience).

Some of my D-Backs stuff

Brandon Drury



Jake Lamb



A.J. ******* (no longer have the gold or x-fractor)



Paul Goldschmidt (no longer have the booklet)

Robbie Ray has struck out the first 5 batters in the game which is no easy task the way that Harper, Turner & Zimmerman have been hitting!

I might end up watching this game with you now the Gausman was ejected

lol, I just heard that he beaned Mookie. Was it actually intentional or did the ump just want no part of it?

I'm just praying them gnats don't lay down some wood on us. Best offensive team in the NL

 

[death2redemptions]

Dude can strikeout anyone if he's on his game. That's #9 in 4.2 IP

Gotta go for double digits Robbie boy

 

[death2redemptions]

Drury will be wearing the golden sombrero tonight. Baseball's version of the dunce cap

 

[death2redemptions]

Strikeout #10

Good News: Ray now leads the NL with 49 K's
Bad News: Old man Zimmerman just gave the Nats the lead with a 2 out double

Watched the first two innings, got Ray on one of my teams, loooots to be excited about if your a D-backs fan, loads of good talent.

Side note my phone tried to autocorrect D-backs to D-Day...not sure if I want to evaluate D-Day fans...or the level of talent, seems it would be in poor taste.

 

[death2redemptions]

With that RBI double Jake Lamb now has an 8 game hit streak...

Free tacos in just the first inning again

The Orioles may now have Beef but at least the D-Backs still got a side of Lamb

 

[death2redemptions]

2nd hit & 3rd RBI of the game for Lamb

[death2redemptions]

Goldy 3-bagging it with an RBI triple in the 1st followed by a 2-run HR by Jake Lamb.

 

[death2redemptions]

Paul Goldschmidt leads the entire NL in WAR (2.5) while Greinke leads all NL pitchers (2.4)
