Diamondbacks 1, Cubs 7: Less fun than watching tiling

The Diamondbacks finish Cactus League play [tomorrow’s game, being at Chase Field, apparently doesn’t count] with just 8 wins in 28 attempts The resulting win percentage, discounting the ties, of .348 is actually pretty close to what it was last year, when Arizona went 6-11 before play was suspended. a .353 W%. That’s their lowest figure since 2011 (12-25, .324) and fewest wins going as far back as I could check standings, which in 2003. Then again, the D-backs haven’t actually had a winning spring since 2016, when they were 24-8 and “won” the Cactus League. That helped them not a jot in the regular season, where they went 69-93.
