Diamondbacks 3, White Sox 6 - Glenn who?
Glenn Enright started and went three innings for the Diamondbacks, allowing four hits with two strikeouts and no walks. -- Arizona Republic Hang on: since when did our rotation feature Enright and Tony Barnette? Because that's who has started the last couple of games for Arizona: Doug Davis...
Saturday Rockpile: ESPN's power rankings and pre-season predictions, Fogg to the Orioles?, more
ESPN.com has posted their first power rankings of the 2009 season. Colorado comes in at #24. The East Coast Sports Network likes the Rockies' depth at closer, but doesn't think the team will get too many leads for Corpas and Street to be able to hold. The self-proclaimed worldwide leader in sports...
Washington, D.C. Welcomes Their Nationals Back To Nationals Park...
(ed. note - "I figured it would be best to just start it this way...") Check the NatCast if you're heading to Nationals Park... That's right, it's baseball in the nation's capital...the Washington Nationals welcome the Baltimore Orioles for the last game before they start counting, one last...
Diamondbacks 7, Brewers 8: The Slaughter of the Slaten
Not many times you'll score runs in six different innings, hit three home-runs and still end up losing. I guess that's some comfort to be taken from this afternoon's loss to the Brewers, as the bullpen had another little seizure, coughing up six runs in three innings, to allow Milwaukee to come...
Rockies 4, White Sox 1: Good Jorge and the Colorado bullpen dominate the ChiSox
9 IP, 11 H, 0 ER, 2 BB, 11 K. That line was the story of today's Cactus League contest between the Rockies and White Sox. Though that looks like some of last season's lines put up by other teams' hurlers against the Rockies' offense, Colorado's pitchers were actually responsible for this...
Diamondbacks 9, Dodgers 10: Rauch = Ouch
Arizona lost by the odd run in nineteen, thanks largely to a spectacularly miserable outing by Jon Rauch, who retired just one of the six batters he faced, with all the others coming around to score as part of a six-run Dodger sixth inning. This makes the Cactus League line for our illustrated...
Spring Training Game #32: Jorge De La Rosa vs. Mark Buehrle

The Washington Nationals' '09 Roster: Can Dmitri Young Do It? Is Scott Boras Serious About Stephen Strasburg?
Dmitri Young... It was reported that the normally affable Dmitri Young met with the DC media earlier this Spring and politely informed each of them that he wouldn't be speaking to them while he worked his way back onto the Washington Nationals' roster. DY knows adversity, in his personal, and in...
Diamondbacks 6, White Sox 9: Uncomfortable Reunions
This has to count as one of the oddest locations in which I have ever written a game recap. I am currently sitting outside the Trunk Space art gallery/performance venue in downtown Phoenix - it's on Grand, opposite the seriously-closed Oasis Hotel. We've just opened the doors for our Peelander-Z...
Diamondbacks Update: Garland's dead arm + Webb's live one
Two games in the past 24 hours, so double the recappy goodness here. We'll start with last night's loss to the Texas Rangers out in Surprise, where Tony Peña took the loss. He allowed his first earned runs of spring, but saved time by giving up four with one pitch, as he surrendered a...
