As we documented previously, there is no particular consensus about who were the best pitchers on the 2016 Diamondbacks. Though in this case, “best” is perhaps another way of saying “least worst”. For the D-backs didn’t just have the worst overall ERA in the majors this year, edging out the Twins in the third decimal place, 5.091 to 5.089. There has only been one higher figure posted over the last seven seasons; the 2012 Rockies reached 5.22.
It’s safe to say no Arizona pitcher covered themselves with glory in any consistent way this year.
