We will have Answers Soon Enough
The Diamondbacks were not expected to be any good last season. Surprise, they have one of the best minor league pools to pull from and they put some of that talent on display.
How did Arizona go from playoff team in 2017 to trading almost everyone away and now only 6 seasons later look to be primed for a decade long run of dominance?
This season will answer every single one of the questions brought up towards the end of last season and in the winter months.
Players like McCarthy, Thomas, Carroll, Rojas, Perdomo, Walker, and Marte are all primed to hit this season running. All young talented players gelling together.

Add in off season acquisitions Longoria, Gurriel Jr, and Moreno and boom this team is ready to compete. And compete for the next 7+ seasons. Also adding in Druw Jones sometime in 2024, this team will be scary.
Exciting for the fanbase to get to see all of these new shiny toys in this lineup. Including amazing young pitchers who will come out the bullpen throwing gas.
Spring Training will have a different feel in the desert, this season fans are expecting this team to make a run for the wildcard spots.
