Well call the season over for the Diamondbacks. This was their best opportunity that the team had, they have taken the first part of the season, and as a result have blown many hopes and dreams that several of the fans for the team had in the earlier part of the 2010 season. This was supposed to be the year that the team got back on track and made an impressive run for post season play, this as a result is not what happened and as a result the team is in last place in their division. This is horrible news for the state that also gave us the NHL disaster Coyotes. This is a sign that teams in Arizona are not good at sports.
There are a lot of problems that have developed in the pitching department of the team. There was supposed to be a solid pitching rotation that would support the team and therefore allow them to make the most out of the opportunities that they had in front of them. This was not the case and as a result the team does a good job to get the ball across the plate to their opponents. There have been a number of home runs that have been scored when it came to the team and their pitching power.
Part of being a good baseball team, is being able to hit the ball. This will go a long way in getting a team to advance bases and win games. 44 games this season the team has not been able to find the proper way to hit the ball. This has been an area of contention for the team as they are looking at having a serious problem just hitting the ball and getting it past the infield. This would explain why the team's home runs stats are in the single digits. In order to hit the ball, you have to aim for the ball. This is the basic rules of baseball.
There is little to brag about when it comes to the team and their abilities in the outfield. There has been one mistake after another that has been made that allowed the opposing team to just have their way in the way of scoring runs on the team. One basic rule of baseball is that you need to learn how to scoop the ball up and as a result learn how to take it and score a double play. This will continue to be a sore spot for the team as a result of not being able to score on their opponents.
If you are a diehard fan of the Diamondbacks, then you are to be congratulated on the dedication that you have for this team; it takes a lot to admit that they are a fan of the team from Arizona. This amount of dedication may one day be rewarded but in the meantime there will be a lot of teams that will make the Diamondbacks, the laughing stock of MLB and as a result will be the end of an era for a team that at one point had so much potential in front of them as a result. This will be a long season for the fans of the Diamondbacks to suffer through for 2010.
If you are one of the faithful for the team, then I feel for you and the best thing to do is hope that next season is better than this one. It is a lost cause for Arizona this season and next is not looking much better.
