With the trade deadline in the past, expect plenty of analysis over the moves that teams did or didn’t make to address roster holes.  For the Diamondbacks, their relatively quiet deadline day came and went with the addition of outfielder Lars Nootbaar, but nothing done to upgrade the rotation or bullpen. It wasn’t for lack […]
