Spencer: Only significant because AZ is playing to their opponent rather than their own skill. AZ will be a borderline competitor until that changes one way or the other.
DBacksEurope: Just baseball and significant at the same time. In the eyes of the Dodgers it is just baseball, they lost a series against the struggling Diamondbacks, but will win the division anyhow. The Diamondbacks can play good baseball and bad baseball and are grinding, as Mike Hazen called it. The team isn’t the fun-playing team of last year, so it is something significant that they are not able to put away the Marlins although you have to give credit to Miami that ever since that horrible April start they are playing .
