You could put out a decent line-up of players who appeared for the AZL D-backs this year while rehabbing. It’d be thin on the infield, but have a battery of Zack Greinke and Chris Herrmann, Chris Owings at shortstop, and an outfield of David Peralta, A.J. Pollock and Socrates Brito. That said, it hasn’t yet been a location through which many prospects pass; if you look at the 2011 or 2012 rosters, about the only names you’ll recognize are the rehabbees. This may simply be a function of youth: the team didn’t exist before 2011, and that year’s hitters had an average age of 18.
