Fans react to Diamondbacks sixth loss in a row

Originally posted on Burn City Sports | By Jacob Hardin | Last updated 8/6/23

Since July 1st, the Arizona Diamondbacks have maintained an 8-22 record, leaving fans utterly fatigued by the relentless string of losses.

While a certain level of disappointment might be expected, considering how the past five years have gone, this season just felt different for many.

As June unfolded, the Diamondbacks proudly occupied a commanding position at the top of the NL West. As June unfolded, the Diamondbacks proudly occupied a commanding position within the National League.

Yet, a mere two months later, their record has plummeted to .500, casting an aura of skepticism over their initial achievements.

The recent 5-3 loss to the Twins on Sunday extended their losing streak to six, pushing fans throughout Arizona to a potential breaking point.”

If the dbacks didn’t bring us our only championship, I don’t think I could be a fan. They have rarely been a serious baseball team under Kendrick’s ownership, and never will be with him as owner. Winning has never been a priority, just “value” and fun at the games.

Well no more need to get upset every game and comment. Dbacks I’ll see you next season when we finish 4th again….

On June 13, I walked into Chase Field to see the Dbacks play sitting in 1st place 16 games over .500 with a 4 game lead over the Dodgers.

Since then they are 16-31, with a record of just 57-56 and 8 games BEHIND the Dodgers in the division.

WOW! A sad and brutal fall. #Dbacks pic.twitter.com/eycbqSS9Yh

At what point is enough enough with our coach? This team needs a change. Luvello ain’t it anymore. Phillies last season were struggling and then they decided to fire their coach and it was the right move. They care about winning but Dbacks clearly don’t @Dbacks

Dbacks trash can Suns season start already

This Dbacks implosion is getting harder to watch by the day. https://t.co/6OseNw5YOw

@Dbacks bullpen. Where good pitchers go to die. Not really sure what a bullpen coach does but….fire Fetters. People forget that Melancon was the second best closer in MLB the year before he fell apart in AZ. Place is haunted.

Maybe this is what happens when your closer gets zero work for 3 weeks.

Maybe the #Dbacks are just cursed.

At what point do you make the managerial change? Seriously? How long do you stand idly by and watch this train wreck? #FireToreyNow #DBacks
