Reynolds speaks up after D-backs loss - 10 hours ago - arizona.diamondbacks.mlb.com

... Major Leagues. You can't go out there and make three errors a night and expect to win a game. We look like the Bad News Bears out there and it's frustrating. It's to the point where stuff's got to change." No one could argue with that statement. The D-backs lead the Majors in errors and the only team with a worse record is the Nationals. How to get things changed, well, that's less clear. D-backs manager A.J. Hinch has tried meetings -- three in a 10-day span -- but they have not provided a boost. "You can give all the rah-rah speeches you want and have all the team meetings you want and ... Read More »;</a>

Which D-Backs stay; which will go? - 1 day ago - azcentral.com

... we all should have seen it coming. The "Baby Backs" that Valley baseball fans so adored just a couple of seasons ago have reached their awkward years.

Conor Jackson, among the club's better hitters, came down with valley fever. There's an ineffective bullpen, a change in managers, a lousy record at home and, predictably, disgruntled fans who are booing the home team. So where do the Diamondbacks go ... Read More »;</a>
