To say this season for the Arizona Diamondbacks has been abysmal would be the understatement of the year. Their play has been atrocious. Each game they seem to find new ways to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. Even that is somewhat of a rose-colored view of how bad this season has gone. It suggests that the Dbacks are competitive in each contest. Yesterday’s second game of a three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers proved how non-competitive they have become. When your starting pitcher gives up five runs in the first inning then is pulled in the second after giving up another four runs before recording an out you know things have gotten bad.
