The Diamondbacks will play a seven-inning exhibition against Grand Canyon University on Wednesday afternoon at Salt River Fields, and Torey Lovullo’s lineup – the first one he’s filled out as Diamondbacks manager -- has the looks of one he could potentially use on Opening Day.
Here’s how it goes: A.J. Pollock (CF); Brandon Drury (2B); Paul Goldschmidt (1B); Jake Lamb (3B); Yasmany Tomas (LF); Oswaldo Arcia (RF); Chris Owings (SS); Socrates Brito (DH); and Jeff Mathis (C).
Take out Brito and swap out Arcia for right fielder David Peralta and the lineup could easily pass for the club’s everyday group.
