Expectations for the Diamondbacks this season are very high after a competitive last 2 months to the 2022 season. With a number of call-ups generating excitement around the future of this franchise.
The Arizona Diamondbacks are one of the teams everybody is saying will be a surprise this season as far as winning games and competing for a playoff spot.
That means one of two things can happen, the D-Backs are going to fall flat or soar to the top. With an extremely talented team at all three components of the game. Pitching, hitting, and fielding.
This team also added some talented veterans looking to lead this young core to success. Add in the extension of manager Torey Lovullo and the confidence is sky high.
The win total set by Las Vegas for the Diamondbacks are 75.5. Which is right around where they ended 2022, 74-88. Which is about 20 wins more than 2021.
