By 2007, the team had an entire new look, including having new uniforms. Everyone was looking forward to putting the disappointing past results behind them. For once, the fans had something to cheer about.
In 2008, the Diamondbacks rewarded the fans by winning the first game against the Cincinnati Reds. In May, they found themselves with one of the best baseball records in MLB: 20-8.
Meanwhile, a lot of activities were going on within the organization. Tony Clark was traded back to the Diamondbacks for a minor league pitcher, Evan Scribner. Dan Haren signed a lucrative four-year contract worth over 40 million dollars. Former World Series MVP David Eckstein was acquired in late August.
Fans who stayed loyal to the Diamondbacks can certainly look forward to more exciting games in the upcoming seasons.
