The Arizona Diamondbacks are taking a beating off the field this week. The specter of the team not being able to reach .500 in 11 opportunities will be more scrutinized each time they get within a game of that number. There is also the continuing fallout regarding the trade of Touki Toussaint, which we at venomstrikes discussed in a roundtable post. It has easily been the most controversial trade that the regime of Tony LaRussa and Dave Stewart have made and the consensus is the D’backs were hosed.
