  • Clearly Not the Same Veteran Group That Won the World Series in 2001, but It’S Also Not the Same Team That Lost 111 in 2004
    Clearly not the same veteran group that won the World Series in 2001, but it’s also not the same team that lost 111 in 2004 3. Arizona Diamondbacks: Do you remember what happened in 2001? Diamondbacks fans do, but are slowly forgetting with the decrease in number of wins each year. Arizona had the worst record in the game in 2004. To top it all off, management looked like complete fools after the whole Wally Backman thing. Backman was the new Manager of the Diamondbacks for about two minutes before they went back to Bob Brenley’s (who should still be managing the team in my opinion) old bench coach - Bob Melvin. Melvin, the former skipper of the Seattle Mariners, might teach his team to do more of the little things than Al Pedrique, the interim Manager towards the end of last season. Sacrifices, bunts, hit-and-run, etc. those type of things can win them more games. Part of it was due to injuries, part of it was due to the loss of key veteran components such as Curt Schilling and part of it was the fact this was just not the same D-Backs team that beat the Yankees in Game 7 of the 2001 Series. Luis Gonzalez, who had the game-winning hit in that epic fall classic, has had substantial success at times and been hurt at other times. One guy that has not been the problem by any means is Randy Johnson. Johnson, the star lefty for the team since 2000, finally got sent to the Yankees in the off-season after almost going there before the trade deadline.
