Well obviously

goes to show that all 30 MLB teams could turn it around with the right approach. A one year turn around is possible for the perennial basement dwellers. The DBacks were proactive when they saw the ship sinking, but teams with historic lineage let their name go rotten for up to 2 decades.

How does it show that? Arizona had a historically bad bullpen last season, now they have one of the best. Their issue was glaring and obvious.

Yes, but didn’t they strike 8 times a game last year? It’s not like the only issue was the bullpen.

Lets say you are running the Pirates. You see no glaring and obvious problems, however, you lose every year. Maybe the guy that takes your job in the future notices the problems that you didn’t, and he turns the organization around (3rd from the bottom to 3rd from the top). For the sake of this example, your name is not Rabbitov, it is Byrnes.

Lol
HummBaby
From what I heard on the radio, it seems Towers is reaping the benefits of the maneuvers and decisions Byrnes made in years past. It wasn’t going to happen overnight. Now that everything is starting to go right, there’s Towers receiving all the praise and admiration. I’m the furthest thing from a D’back fan, so I’ll claim ignorance on this matter……I’m just going on what was discussed on sports talk radio.

No he isnt

Josh Byrnes is an IDIOT!! He can screw around with the Cubs in the offseason when he will be the GM there, for all I care. Towers should’ve been hired back in 2005 when he first interviewed. But we are glad he have him now.
GO D’BACKS

in other words, they hired the right guy
