Hazen, Lovullo aim to win while building

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Torey Lovullo has been everywhere in baseball, and Saturday he was exactly where he has always wanted to be. He was seated in a folding chair adjacent to the D-backs' dugout, a rookie manager watching his team play its first Cactus League game.

"I'm like any fan right now,'' Lovullo said. "I'm like anybody else that is getting a chance to watch our team. I can't wait to watch today's game.''

While Lovullo focused on Paul Goldschmidt, A.J. Pollock, Jake Lamb and Shelby Miller, the D-backs' new general manager, Mike Hazen, was watching from the team's box.
