Arizona Diamondbacks spring training: 2/17, first day of full workouts

I've never been so pleased to see gentle jogging and light stretching, relaxed swings in the batting cage and so on.

There's also coverage of manager Torey Lovullo's open-air session with the media at the conclusion of practice. He talks a bit about his general philosophy of management, and how he stressed to the players today that "We're in this together." Of course, it's extremely early going, but Lovullo says he's putting together some new things for the team this spring - Robbie Hammock appears to be heavily involved. He's not worried about the potential bad weather tomorrow, with few of the pitchers being scheduled to throw - the hitters can easily get their hacks in, in the batting cages.
