Turning Japanese?
Something of a curveball, in the news that Arizona have made an offer to Japanese pitcher Hiroki Kuroda . Seattle appear to be the front runners - the Ichiro factor again, in no small part - and my colleague at Lookout Landing has already written ...

The Prodigal Returneth
Welcome back to Arizona, Randy. We know you liked it here: four Cy Youngs, a World Series ring and co-MVP, a record of 103-49, and that miniscule 2.65 ERA in almost 1,400 innings of work, with 1832 K's. Though you left in a bit of a huff, who can...

Time of the Signs
Phew. Dodged a bullet there. Initially, it seemed that Game Two of the National League Championship Series was going to start at 1pm. Having already bought tickets for that, and having to work that day, I was thrown into panic-mode by this rumor. And ...

Thank you.
The 2007 baseball season is over for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Not, perhaps, the way we wanted it to a week ago, but I think most of us would agree that it has surpassed expectations. 90 wins; a division title; our first playoff series win since ...
