This was inspired by a discussion with samath, following his comment on the Geraldo Perdomo article a couple of weeks back. He brought up the topic of the best players who appeared for the Diamondbacks only in one season, and came up with a surprising candidate as the best-ever for Arizona in that role. I thought it was worth digging into a little bit more, so here we are. It was relatively easy to pull up a list of the 132 players who appeared in only one season for Arizona, from Tony Abreu to Allen Zinter, figuring out the “best” required a fair amount of manual checking thereafter.
