Arizona is coming off a series to forget in Tampa, where they were swept. In the three losses in Tampa, Arizona managed a total of four runs in those three losses, mostly against some pedestrian pitching. Even Drew Rasmussen did not have his best stuff going when he managed to keep the Arizona offense mostly silent. If there was ever a good time to face the Giants, now, at home, after a rough road trip is the time. San Francisco is even doing Arizona the favour of sending Tyler Mahle to the mound
for the first game. A win tonight against the Giants gets the Diamondbacks back to .500 for the season. That’s not terribly impressive, but it is an important first step in convincing Mike Hazen to remain a potential buyer at the trade deadline.
