The case against the Arizona Diamondbacks signing Merrill Kelly

To be clear, this is something of a devil’s advocate piece. I think it’s quite likely the team will bring Merrill Kelly back, and it’s not a scenario to which I would completely, or even particularly, be opposed. The team desperately needs starting pitchers.

Cardinals-Jaguars second half open thread

It should be more, but we will take it. The Arizona Cardinals lead the Jacksonville Jaguars 14-10 at the half.
