It appears the Arizona Diamondbacks will not make a splash this winter. After signing Zack Greinke to a $206 million deal during the last off-season, the long term future of the franchise could be up in the air.
With a new regime in place, General Manager Mike Hazen is taking time to reach out to existing players and ascertain team needs.
“Starting from scratch” likely does not characterize the current situation. The Diamondbacks would like to contend next season for the National League West division title, and, at the same time, secure moves for the future.
“It is a little early to make those assumptions, determinations” Hazen said.
