Amidst all of the late-inning chaos that surrounded this just-completed Arizona series is the capper: the Atlanta Braves basically won these games by taking nearly all of the players recently stolen from Arizona and rubbing their noses in it.
Somewhere out there, I could imagine that even the ghost of Bronson Arroyo is snickering somewhere at this outcome. More on that in a bit.
The Braves didn’t completely bury the Diamondbacks this weekend, but they may have come close. Arizona entered this series with a 75-64 record – hopeful that they could do well against Atlanta while the Rockies and Dodgers were beating up one another in Denver.
