KEY GAME INFORMATION
ARIZONA: 2017 93-69, second place, wild card, lost to Dodgers in NLDS
MANAGER Torey Lovullo (second season)
ADDITIONS: OF Steven Souza Jr., OF Jarrod Dyson, C Alex Avila, RHP Yoshihisa Hirano, RHP Brad Boxberger
SUBTRACTIONS: OF J.D. Martinez, 2B Brandon Drury, C Chris Iannetta, RHP Fernando Rodney
OUTLOOK: With all five starters back and nearly every position player returning, the Diamondbacks expect to be in the thick of things in the NL West after their big turnaround season under Lovullo, the NL MANAGER of the Year. The loss of Martinez hurts the offense but the acquisition of Souza -- who will begin the season on the disabled list -- and signing of Dyson should help. In addition, several players who missed much or most of last season with injuries are back, including Ahmed and utilityman Chris Owings. Greinke's initial start was pushed back a few days after he experienced tightness in his groin during a spring training outing, but it's not expected to be serious. Ray hopes to improve on his breakout season, giving the team a solid 1-2 pitching punch. The lineup could use a return to form at the plate for Pollock, who struggled a bit after missing nearly all of 2016 due to injury. Marte figures to get plenty of time at second base and some at shortstop. Owings and Daniel Descalso can play pretty much every infield spot as well as the outfield.
WASHINGTON: 2017 97-65, first place, lost to Cubs in NLDS
MANAGER Dave Martinez (first season)
ADDITIONS: 1B-OF Matt Adams, C Miguel Montero, RHP Jeremy Hellickson, RHP Joaquin Benoit, INF Matt Reynolds
SUBTRACTIONS: Manager Dusty Baker, LF Jayson Werth, 1B-LF Adam Lind, C Jose Lobaton, RHP Matt Albers
OUTLOOK: This might be the end of an era at Nationals Park, with Harper eligible to leave as a free agent after the season and General Manager Mike Rizzo's contract set to expire, too. The team has won four NL East titles in the past six years but has zero playoff series victories to show for it. That's why yet another manager (Baker) lost his job, and yet another rookie skipper has been brought in (will Martinez have more success than Matt Williams?). Rizzo has made no secret of the need to start making postseason inroads -- a World Series is the stated goal, and that's certainly not an outrageous aim, given all the talent he's assembled. The lineup remains almost exactly the same, although Werth is gone after playing out his seven-year contract. The rotation and bullpen are also nearly identical to the way they looked at the end of 2017.
PREVIEW
Diamondbacks bring series streak into matchup vs. Nationals
 

PHOENIX -- The Arizona Diamondbacks opened the season with the best run in the National League in 41 years, relaying on pitching, defense and know-how to overcome the loss of what was expected to be their Nos. 4-5 hitters.

Washington also has played without some key components, but so far the results have not been as good as the teams head into a three-game series at Nationals Park this weekend.

The Diamondbacks (17-7) are the first NL team since the 1977 Los Angeles Dodgers to win their first eight series of a season, and they will send top starter Patrick Corbin to the mound in attempt to get off on the right foot Friday.

Stephen Strasburg will start for Washington (11-14), which broke a four-game losing streak in which it had scored only eight runs by jumping all over San Francisco 15-2 on Wednesday.

Arizona took two of three from Philadelphia, clinching the series with an 8-2 victory in the rubber game Thursday.

Jarrod Dyson, Nick Ahmed and David Peralta homered and Matt Koch made his second quality start to get his first win of the season. The 2001 Mariners are the last team to open the season with nine straight series wins.

Dyson, who hit both of his homers this season in the Phillies' series, is getting a lot of run in the absence of projected right fielder and No. 5 hitter Steven Souza Jr., who suffered a pectoral muscle injury late in spring training and has returned to a throwing program after an earlier setback.

Third baseman Jake Lamb played only four games before suffering a left shoulder injury, and he suffered a setback last week when he was shut down with right elbow tendinitis.

No matter.

"It's the next man up," Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. "It happened all last year and it's starting to happen this year.

"The players who have stepped into the two open spots have done a great job. We have a really good culture here. These guys know what it takes to go out and perform on a daily basis. That's equaled wins so far this season, and we need to continue pressing on."

The Diamondbacks have been carried by a pitching staff that has the only sub-3.00 ERA in the league and a defense that is tied for NFL lead in fewest errors and also ranks No. 1 in the more esoteric total zone fielding runs "saved" above average, according to baseballreference.com.

Corbin, the reigning NL player of the week, is 4-0 with a 1,89 ERA in five starts, with 48 strikeouts and six walks in 33 1/3 innings. He has made good use of a slider that he can command at several speeds.

Corbin is 2-1 with a 3.27 ERA in five career appearances (three starts) against the Nationals. He has not given up an earned run in 10 1/3 innings at Nationals Park.

"We pay a lot of attention to what works for our guys," Lovullo said. "We give them a menu for different reasons and different situations and they go out there knowing what pitches are important to throw. Patrick utilizes that and trusts that. He executes a tremendous game plan."

Washington's Bryce Harper is tied for the NL lead with eight homers, is second with 10 doubles and is tied for third with 19 RBIs, all of which has led some opponents to pitch around him whenever possible.

San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy walked Harper with first base open and one out in the eighth inning of the Giants' 4-3 victory, preferring to put the potential go-ahead run on base rather than pitch to Harper. The Giants got a double play grounder from next batter Ryan Zimmerman and held on to win.

Harper has 32 walks, eight more than anyone else, and is on pace for 207.

Since winning their first four games, the Nationals are 7-14. They have played without offensive threat Daniel Murphy (knee) all season. Left fielder Adam Eaton (ankle) has not played since April 8, and third baseman Anthony Rendon (toe) has not played in two weeks.

Shortstop Trea Turner had six hits, Matt Adams had six RBIs and rookie outfielder Andrew Stevenson had four hits and four RBIs in the Nationals' 15-2 victory in San Francisco. They scored 14 runs with two outs.

"This could actually jump-start our offense," Washington first-year manager Dave Martinez told reporters.

Strasburg, 2-2 with a 2.97 ERA in five starts, has made three quality starts and has not given up more than four runs in any game. He is 4-2 with a 3.16 ERA in nine career starts against the Diamondbacks.

He was removed from his only start against them last July after two innings with forearm stiffness and missed almost four weeks.
