Default Re: Coming Soon: Justin Upton

Who would have thought that bandaided pitching staff would start so well?

I did. While Doug Davis is Doug Davis, that's not so terrible as far as fourth starters go. Webb, Johnson, and Hernandez give the D'Backs a formidable front three and insure that they will be no worse than league average in pitching. The bullpen has a lot of live arms which gives them a chance at a solid bullpen. Coming into this year, I thought the pitching was the strength of the team, and I thought they'd be right where they are. This team will be in the thick of things come September, setting themselves up to be the NL favorite in 2008.

And yes, I expect Justin Upton to be a part of that championship team!
