Diamondbacks News
The Arizona Diamondbacks are still grappling with offensive struggles, as highlighted by manager Torey Lovullo's candid remarks before last night's narrow 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Rookie LuJames Groover's first MLB homer provided a much-needed spark, but the team has been outscored by six runs over the past week, revealing serious issues with a pitching staff that has averaged 5.6 runs against per game. The recent designation of Carlos Santana for assignment signals a shakeup, as Arizona looks to find its footing with emerging talents like Mitch Bratt, who made an impressive debut with three strikeouts in three innings. As the Diamondbacks sit at 40-39 and third in their division, it’s clear they need to rediscover their offensive identity to avoid falling further behind in a competitive NL West.
