Some say the Arizona Diamondbacks are ahead of schedule, advancing all the way to the World Series with a young roster that was supposed to need a few more years of seasoning before hitting the sport’s biggest stage. Manager Torey Lovullo and general manager Mike Hazen have a different perspective.
Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo, right, talks with Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen before Game 3 of a baseball NL Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023, in Phoenix. The Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo hugs Geraldo Perdomo and Corbin Carroll after their win against the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 7 of the baseball NL Championship Series in Philadelphia Tuesday, Oct. 24, 2023.
There was also personal tragedy mixed into those tough seasons. Nicole Hazen — the GM’s wife — was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 2020 and fought the brain cancer for more than two years. She was 45 when she died. When the D-backs clinched a spot in the playoffs on Sept. 30, Mike Hazen admitted the emotions were still raw.
