The guys is absolutely Raking in AAA. This team could use a spark, I'd love to see him DH in Houston later this week.

Rickie Weeks Jr. gets the start at designated hitter for the Dbacks tonight.

Chip Hale said Weeks deserves the start.
33 year old washed up player more deserving than having a hot prospect like O'Brien getting some major league experience.

Hard to grasp this... I'm sure the team will say that O'Brien still isn't ready. But they did just call him up last week for emergency purposes. And in an AL park, I see no reason why he couldn't DH if playing the field is the concern.

It is worse than that but I can't remember the word.

How Wisenhuntish of him to refuse to play young players. Maybe Weeks has "moxie"

Makes no sense. The season is just about over, so play as many young guys as they can.

True. Who would've thought that we'd be talking about a season being over before June in a year where we sign Greinke and Miller?
