During an appearance on Flippin Bats with Ben Verlander, five-time All-Star Adam Jones gave his two cents on the current state of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
While the majority of Jones’s playing time spanned 11 seasons with the Baltimore Orioles, he concluded his professional journey in a Diamondbacks’ uniform, participating in 137 games in Arizona before retiring in 2019.
Ironically, the Diamondbacks and the Orioles are now in similar positions. Both have a large handful of young talent and are coming off an unexpected appearance in the postseason.
However, where these two teams stand apart is how they have approached this offseason.
