Column: ‘I don’t see why not.’ Diamondbacks primed to take down Dodgers again
Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo, right, with Dodgers manager Dave Roberts during last season’s NL Division Series, has guided Arizona to within striking distance of first place in the NL West this year. “They’re 100% bleeding Dodger blue.” That could make for a lighthearted subplot this weekend, with the Diamondbacks within three games of the Dodgers in the National League West before Thursday’s action. “If we can beat them then, we can definitely beat them now.” The Diamondbacks, remember, were the last team into the playoffs last year, a team that finished 16 games behind the Dodgers, a team that won 84 games in the regular season and then dismissed the Dodgers in three games in October. Look at the World Series matchup: It was two wild-card teams that barely got in.” Said general manager Mike Hazen: “I think any reference I have heard for the last year — including when I talk about it — is that we were an 84-win team.
