Diamondbacks News
The Arizona Diamondbacks are stumbling through early May, struggling with a 2-5 record over the last week, which culminated in a disappointing 4-8 loss to the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. With a run differential of -21 during this stretch, the team is clearly feeling the effects of a rocky road trip, and the altitude from their Mexico City games might have taken its toll. Amid this turbulence, Ildemaro Vargas has emerged as the unexpected MVP of the season so far, batting an impressive .382. However, the pitching staff looks shaky, and fans are questioning the leadership of manager Torey Lovullo. With upcoming games against the Pirates, the D-backs need to turn things around quickly before the season slips further away.
