I’ve been expressing concerns about the Diamondbacks rotation for a while now. The team doesn’t project strong in any one area of pitching or offense, and there’s always been a sense since the beginning of the offseason of “where do you start?”
It all starts with starting pitching, at least in home games. I fear they’re going to be looking at crooked number deficits early in games and starters will be getting knocked out of the box early on a very frequent basis, putting the offense in a big hole to climb out of. That could make for a lot of discouraging games and short game threads.
