History

Historical Context

In 2001 the Arizona Diamondbacks became the fastest expansion franchise to win a World Series, defeating the three-time defending New York Yankees in seven games. That championship set a pattern of rapid roster overhauls; today injuries to Michael Soroka, Jordan Lawlar and Ryne Nelson force another rebuild, while Corbin Carroll tops the league with nine triples.
