So it looks like Marte will be on fire but we will be a 60 ish win team again, at least TL likely gets fired .

Caleb smith already at 33 pitches so far in the first. Dbacks down 0-2 and there’s only two outs right now.

DBack’s down by 4 to start the 3rd. Caleb Smith walked two in that inning and both ended up scoring.

Where did he come from? Not showing too much today. His stats show he didn't do much better in spring ball did it?

Rojas with a routine grounder botches the throw and it bounces and strikes Walker in the face.

And the throw knocks Walker out of the game. Tatis scores one batter later.

DBacks unfortunately will need to play perfect baseball every day if they want to have any chance of winning any games. Sucks.

Marte is still on fire. Pavin Smith had a nice hit earlier too. That’s about it so far.

If Widener can be a surprise for us this year, that will help.

Who do we have listed as our closer?
From what Steve and Bob said towards the end of game 4 - Joakim Soria and Chris Devenski are possible closers. Luvollo is likely still figuring this out, without a clear choice right now.
Devenski has been called “the Dragon” or something - maybe this dragon will start showing up.

I’m the eternal optimist!
