Back at Chase Field for some Sunday baseball. Got hooked up with some pretty good free seats.

Yes.....and yes. We bought the weekend season tickets. Good to all Saturday & Sunday games. Plus our ticket rep gives us her employee tickets from time to time....like today.

Our season tickets are up in 330, but our occasional free upgrades are down in the 120's.

4 for 4 after 3 for 4 yesterday. Avg went from .232 to .257 in 2 games. On the road to 300!

He's probably a 280-320 hitter, so considering where he was, he has nowhere to go but up.

Had a sweet diving play at 2b today as well.

On the flip side of waiting for Prado to get hot, we are waiting for the opposite from Chavez since he has never hit above .300 in a season other than a handful of ABs his first season in the majors.

Anytime Montero's spot is up in the 8th or later and a tie game or we are down, Nieves needs to bat. Plain and simple.

I'll learn that if you can give me a good reason why his 175 AB sample means more than his 2000+ ABs coming into this season.

He is a beast. Corbin didn't get the win but we are still undefeated in games Corbin has started!

Absolutely. Crazy thing is me and my buddy each had money on AZ to cover 1.5 at +150. What a way to do it.

Goldschmidt is #1 in baseball in WPA (win probability added). Not surprising considering all of his clutch hits.

1. Paul Goldschmidt +8.12
2. Chris Davis +6.99

And Heath Bell is the nut low. The dude seems to give up runs every time he comes in.

Let's get this thread out of the muck by doing some trivia!

Out of the 18 players who have been to an All Star game as a Dback, name the 6 players that have had more than 1 All Star appearance as a member of the Dbacks.

Only way this would jump this year is if Miley or Montero randomly incorrectly make the All Star team.

I'm admittedly a new Diamondbacks follower, but I'll take a shot.

Gonzo, Schilling, and Johnson would be my first guesses. Upton? Matt Williams? Hell, I don't even know how long Williams was in AZ lol.

EDIT: looking back at past rosters I'm gonna add Webb to my list of guesses.

All but one:

5: Luis Gonzalez
5: Randy Johnson
3: Brandon Webb
2: ????
2: Curt Schilling
2: Justin Upton

Matt Williams only had one, he was on the team from '98 to '03 (didn't write through '03 for a reason).
