[Jake Oliver @DarthDbacks]

Such a strange and confusing decision from him there especially on a 3-1 count

[Alex Weiner @alexjweiner]

That bunt from Geraldo Perdomo...

[Amarillo Sod Poodles @sodpoodles]

Demetrio Crisantes scorches a two-run double in his first Double-A at-bat! 👏

[Hillsboro Hops @HillsboroHops]

It was a good time, not a long time 😭

After just four games in a Hops uniform, @dbacks No. 5 prospect Demetrio Crisantes is on his way to Amarillo! We'll miss you dearly, DC.

The struggling Geraldo Perdomo, who went 0-3 last night and is now batting .221 on the season, will get the day off today and Jose Fernandez will be at shortstop in Game 2 vs the Dodgers.

[Jake Oliver @DarthDbacks]

That was a very rough series vs the Mariners and with the Dodgers up next, it could be a long week if the offense doesn't get back to what they were doing

[Diamondbacks Prospects 🐍 @dbacksprospectz]

Hayden Durke has voluntarily retired, according to his player page.

He was amongst the hottest prospects in the #Dbacks system last year.

Thank you @DarthDbacks for notifying me of this!

[Minor League Baseball @MiLB]

Manuel Pena ... come on down! You're the first player to reach 20 homers in the Minors!

The @Dbacks slugger goes oppo to push his OPS to .964 for the @sodpoodles:

[Jake Oliver @DarthDbacks]

@dbacksprospectz I am sending this to your college professors

[Jake Oliver @DarthDbacks]

@dbacksprospectz I hope you walk on Legos and stub multiple toes, this meme irates me lol

[Jody Jackson @Jody_Jackson]

Pfaadt struggles v LHH continue

[Diamondbacks Prospects 🐍 @dbacksprospectz]

Mitch Bratt was pulled from the @Aces game after 3 innings. He was at 63 pitches.

[Logan🌵 @phxlogan]

The Diamondbacks' pitching staff has been the most improved unit in all of baseball since April 👀

[Nick Piecoro @nickpiecoro]

Corbin Burnes faced hitters today for the first time since surgery, throwing 20 pitches, Torey Lovullo said. He'll have another live session on Tuesday.

[Arizona Diamondbacks | Stats & Info @DbacksStatsInfo]

There are around 50 players in MLB that make an AAV of $25M+ (including deferred money).

That represents about ~6% of the overall player pool.

You can't have the guys making millions speak for the hundreds and hundreds making the minimum.

Insert a floor. Cap teams for balance.
