The Diamondbacks fielded one of the youngest rosters in MLB, so 2016 saw a lot of growing pains when the young guys were forced to step up due to injuries. The veterans that did survive the injury bug either regressed or were castoffs latching onto one last chance to contribute in at the MLB level. As expected the ship hit the iceberg, with the Diamondbacks GM sinking with it. Even though the farm system is very much barren with very few prospects I think can project as regular MLB contributors, the team does have a decent amount of cost-controlled talent.
