Miguel Montero

Miguel Montero had two of the biggest hits for the Chicago Cubs during their postseason run that culminated in a World Series title, though the veteran catcher was not thrilled about playing a part-time role in October. 

With 2015 set to begin, the Arizona Diamondbacks have issues to address that ailed them throughout this past season. 

The D-Backs 2014 season ended 64-98—the worst record in the MLB.

However, several injuries could be to blame for such a poor year—Paul Goldschmidt, Patrick Corbin, A.J. Pollock and Mark Trumbo, to name a few.

Change is certainly on the wish list of Arizona Diamondbacks fans as the holiday season approaches. 

And with spring training and the regular season also approaching, change must happen now. The 2014 season was one to forget. The D-Backs finished 64-98—worst in MLB.

Miguel Montero is on the move.

The Arizona Diamondbacks dealt the two-time All-Star catcher to the Chicago Cubs for two players confirms the team's Twitter account: 

The trade doesn't come as much of a surprise. It was no secret Arizona made the 31-year-old available to the highest bidder.

Miguel Montero of the Arizona Diamondbacks has been traded to the Chicago Cubs for minor league RHPs Jeferson Mejia and Zack Godley.

Montero Traded to Cubs for Minor Leaguers 

The Cubs announced Montero has been traded to the Cubs for minor league pitchers Jeferson Mejia and Zack Godley:

The first month of the MLB offseason is the most crucial because it generally establishes which teams are going to be players and which teams are going to sit most of the winter out.

We've now come to roughly the one-month mark, and many teams have already indicated the roles they'll play in the coming weeks. The rumors have swirled since before the World Series ended, but they've now picked up with no more baseball to play. The focus is solely on free agency and the trade market.

The Arizona Diamondbacks 2011 Major League Baseball Season couldn't be any worse than their 2010 season, could it?

The 2010 MLB Season marked the second consecutive year the Arizona Diamondbacks finished with a losing record (65-97) and in last place in the National League (NL) West.

The team's slow start resulted in manager AJ Hinch and general manager Josh Byrnes losing their jobs midway through the season on July 1st.

Welcome to the Arizona Diamondbacks garage sale.

Everything must go.

Seriously, everything.

Currently last place in the National League West and over twenty games under .500, the Diamondbacks need to start rebuilding.

This team just isn't going to win. Ever.

With the July 31 trade deadline looming, these five players are the most likely to be sent off.

These days fantasy baseball is loaded with crazy stats for everything you could possibly think of, from hits to Linear Weights Run Value . Some of them are completely worthless to most of us, and to be honest, if you have to go to something like Ultimate Zone Rating to decide between two players, you can probably just flip a coin.

This past Friday, Arizona's governor signed a law that would require all immigrants to carry documents that would prove their legal status in the United States of America. Police in Arizona may also stop anyone that reasonably and suspiciously looks illegal.

The law has already started to go under fire and criticized by law officials and common people of the United States. Many will agree that this sets the United States government a few steps behind in their work for immigration stability.
