Bay Bridge Series Returns
Posted on 18 May 2012 by Josh Muller.
The Bay Bridge Series returns Friday night and the battle for East and West bay bragging rights follows it. This season, with the teams in virtually identical situations in their respective divisions, it seems the Oakland A’s and the San Francisco Giants have a bit more to play for than in recent years. This is one of my favorite series every year because (if it isn’t painfully obvious) I...

Mile High Altitude Freezes The Snakes
Posted on 15 Apr 2012 by Matthew Hesse.
The Diamondbacks started out hot to start 2012. They swept the Giants at home. Not only that but they beat aces of the Giants: Lincecum, Bumgarner, and Cain. Then they traveled to San Diego and beat out the Padres 2 of the 3 games. Finally they ended this week with a road trip to a cold and windy Denver for their 3 game series with the Colorado Rockies. The Diamondbacks started out the ...

Defense Wins Championships
Posted on 14 Apr 2012 by Steve Folsom.
There's an old saying in sports: defense wins championships. In baseball, defense is part of the game, but in this reference it's pitching (along with a good defense) that wins championships. Either way, that doesn't bode well for the 2012 version of the Colorado Rockies (or any version of the Colorado Rockies since their inception in 1993). The Rockies defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-6...

Colorado Rockies Offseason Recap
Posted on 14 Mar 2012 by Steve Folsom.
Longer days and warmer temperatures can only mean one thing: Colorado Rockies baseball is back. The Rockies enter their 20th season as a professional baseball franchise and aim to win their first N.L. West title. There is always a lot of shuffling of players during the off-season and this winter was no different. Here is a recap of the Rockies key moves they hope can push them into the pl...

A’s Trade Cahill To The Diamondbacks
Posted on 9 Dec 2011 by Josh Muller.
The Oakland A’s have agreed to send pitchers Trevor Cahill and Craig Breslow to the Arizona Diamondbacks for three prospects in Jarrod Parker, Collin Cowgil and Ryan Cook. There has been a lot of trade talk surrounding certain all-star pitchers for the A’s, primarily lefty starter Gio Gonzalez and closer Andrew Bailey, as I wrote a couple of days ago. But in vintage Billy Beane style he qui...

Diamondbacks Inch Closer with Ian Kennedy’s 20th Win
Posted on 20 Sep 2011 by Matthew Hesse.
The first pitcher in the National League to 20 wins is not Roy Halladay, not Cole Hamels, not Cliff Lee, but it is Ian Kennedy. The only 20 win pitchers this year in MLB are Justin Verlander (24) and Kennedy (20) wins. J.J. Putz was happy to secure the win for Ian Kennedy giving him the milestone of 20. Last night, Ian Kennedy pitched 8 amazing innings against the Pittsburgh Pirates allowing...

Can We Get Some Ballpark Love?
Posted on 3 Sep 2011 by Josh Muller.
I’ve been doing this blog for most of the 2011 season and it has been a blast. But there is one major issue that I have yet to fully cover and that’s the Oakland A’s ballpark situation. There are two reasons I haven’t said much about this topic: 1) I have a biased opinion on it with very mixed feelings about any proposed new site and 2) there has been very little news to report since ML...

Diamondbacks Sprinting to Finish with NL West Lead
Posted on 31 Aug 2011 by Matthew Hesse.
This entire season the Giants seemed to have that edge to keep them in first place. Then recently the Diamondbacks took the lead despite falling apart on their road trips to Philadelphia and Atlanta. Everyone assumed the NL West would be a divisional race up until the final game and possibly beyond. The Arizona Diamondbacks, like they have all season, threw everyone for a loop with their ...

Red Hot D’Backs Stumble Out of Philly
Posted on 20 Aug 2011 by Matthew Hesse.
The Diamondbacks have been the proverbial red headed stepchild of the National League West. They have nipped at the Giants heels all season but could never make the jump into first. Finally on August 11th with a little help from the Phillies, the Diamondbacks took a one game lead over the Giants and Arizona has not looked back. Collin Cowgill celebrates after touching home in time to g...

Phight for Right to Party
Posted on 11 Aug 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
In case anyone’s last name is “Van Winkle” or they have been residing in a town called “Bedrock” it has now become common knowledge that the 2011 Philadelphia Phillies (77-40, 37 games over .500 for the first time since finishing 101-61 in 1977) are officially the best team in baseball. Mind you, these numbers reflect regular season opponents in August rather than postseason opponents...
