It was a bit of a rollercoaster during the offseason for the Arizona Diamondbacks fans. They weren't sure if they would start the season with Ketel Marte on their roster or if he would be traded during the winter.
He was a big part of the team's success over the years, and luckily for the fanbase, the front office decided to keep him, at least for the start of the season. They could certainly change their minds if they slip down the standings as we get closer to the trade deadline.
They doubled down by bringing in Nolan Arenado to man third base. They have gotten off to a solid 17-17 start, but that record could be much better.
