We’ll be doing this again next weekend in Phoenix, playing the entire season series against the D-backs in a 10-day period, so the preview here from Jim McLennan, manager of our SB Nation Diamondbacks site AZ Snakepit, will also be valid then (except for specific numbers).
The D-backs began their current road trip with a sweep of the Braves, leaving them with a 10-9 record. That’s probably about the mark I’d have expected, but it’s the way it has been achieved which has been a surprise. We thought the offense would struggle after the loss of Paul Goldschmidt and A.
