It has been so long that the team has do anything which has received a positive reaction, that I’d almost forgotten what it feels like. Even when the results have proven the team right, e.g. the Jean Segura trade, it still seemed like virtually everything they did, was accompanied by a welter of snark, some of it justified, some of it not. But this time, there seems to have been almost universal praise for the Diamondbacks having prized Mike Hazen away from the Red Sox. This came from both inside and outside the industry, and even the team that lost Hazen went with more than the standard “future endeavors” speech.
