After a disastrous 2009 season, the Diamondbacks were looking forward to
better times when 2010 kicked off.
Buoyed by free-agent acquisitions Kelly Johnson and Adam LaRoche, trade
pickups Edwin Jackson and Ian Kennedy and the expected return of Conor
Jackson and Brandon Webb from injury, Arizona hoped to bounce back from a
70-92 debacle.
Instead, things got worse.
The offense continued to set strikeout records, and the bullpen was the worst
in baseball. Conor Jackson was ineffective before being traded to the
Athletics at midseason, and Webb never made it back to the mound.
The controversial move of A.J. Hinch from farm director to manager in 2009
ended up costing both general manager Josh Byrnes and Hinch their jobs,
despite long-term contracts for each. With a 31-48 record and waning interest
from fans, owner Ken Kendrick and president Derek Hall pulled the plug. They
installed director of player personnel Jerry DiPoto as interim GM and bench
coach Kirk Gibson as manager.
The Diamondbacks still finished with a 65-97 record, third-worst in baseball,
but the atmosphere in the clubhouse improved after the change.
DiPoto undertook a major reduction in the team payroll and added depth to a
thin farm system by trading Jackson, Dan Haren, Chad Qualls and Chris Snyder.
The team gained further payroll relief after the season with the conclusion
of the bloated $30 million contract of Eric Byrnes, who had been released in
January.
More front-office changes came in the offseason, highlighted by the hiring of
Kevin Towers as GM, a position he held with the Padres for 14 years. Towers
persuaded DiPoto to stay on in a new role to oversee both scouting and player
development.
Farm director Mike Berger was reassigned to a pro scouting position and
initially replaced by Double-A Mobile manager Rico Brogna. When Brogna
resigned after one month, Arizona turned to minor league field coordinator
Mike Bell. Scouting director Tom Allison was replaced by Ray Montgomery, who
like Allison had been a Brewers crosschecker.
Gibson had his "interim" tag removed at the end of the season and added Don
Baylor, Charles Nagy, Alan Trammell and Eric Young to his coaching staff.
The farm system benefited from DiPoto's trades. Daniel Hudson went 7-1, 1.69
after coming over from the White Sox in the Jackson deal, which also yielded
young lefthander David Holmberg.
The Diamondbacks picked up two more southpaws in Tyler Skaggs and Patrick
Corbin when they sent Haren to the Angels. The system's biggest boost will
come the return of top prospect Jarrod Parker, who sat out 2010 recuperating
from Tommy John surgery.
After focusing on position prospects with seven picks in the first two rounds
of the 2009 draft, Arizona went for pitcher with its first eight choices last
June. The 2010 draft delivered the final snafu of the Byrnes regime when the
team drafted righthander Barret Loux sixth overall, in large part because he
accepted a below-slot deal worth $2 million.
When Loux failed a postdraft physical because of concerns over his shoulder
and elbow, the Diamondbacks withdrew their offer. In an unprecedented move,
MLB declared Loux a free agent and he signed with the Rangers. Arizona
receives the No. 7 overall pick in the 2011 draft for failing to sign Loux,
along with the No. 3 pick it earned with its poor play.
