Diamondbacks averaging over seven runs per game

Spring Training has been nothing short of spectacular for the Diamondbacks. They have racked up a 21-7 record so far, four more wins than anyone else. Their bats have been relentless this spring, leading the league in runs scored, hits, batting average and OPS.

At the forefront this preseason has been shortstop Jean Segura. Acquired in a trade this offseason with the Brewers, he has been hitting a ridiculous .527/.544/.880 with three homers and nine RBI. Following close behind is Nick Ahmed with a .412/.404/.706 triple slash. The two infielders have been locked in a competition for the starting shortstop gig, and there is no doubt that that has helped them play at the peak of their ability.
