I would like to start by looking back on last year and how the Arizona Diamondbacks did in their run to the playoffs.
They were pitching lights out.
Brandon Webb was amazing (three consecutive shutouts) and in my opinion should have won the Cy Young, but I don't believe the Diamondbacks had enough hitting, and nothing has been done about that.
They have added
Dan Haren -- a great pick up and a great pitcher who has made the Diamondbacks have the best 1-2 punch with Webb first, but where is the hitting?
This off season they have done nothing to improve their .235 hitting. That is why we struggled in the playoffs and that is why we will continue to struggle until we get a big bat into our lineup. The front office needs to get it together in order to find some better hitting for the Diamondbacks.
Pitching may help, but on its own, it can never win a game (just ask
Harvey Haddix) and thus we can't expect to get to another world series. They need more than just Orlando Hudson.

You're right on...We need more hitting...I'm sick of all the pitching we keep getting. We already have a nasty pitch lineup...
