PHOENIX -- D-backs general manager Mike Hazen has pulled off an interesting balancing act these last few months.
Hazen strengthened his team by adding outfielder Jon Jay, third baseman Eduardo Escobar and relievers Matt Andriese, Brad Ziegler and Jake Diekman while still protecting the organization's best Minor League prospects.
It's not an easy thing to do.
"Accomplishing all those things is maybe not the best approach, trying to do all those things at once," said Hazen, whose club sits atop the National League West.
