Warning! Warning! A band of radioactive saguaros has descended from the high desert, destroying all in their path, one prick at a time. They call themselves…. the Cactus League.

Now that we have your attention, we’re smack dab in the middle of the Arizona Cactus League spring training schedule. It’s perfect weather to head out and watch our home team gear up for the season. This week, the Diamondbacks face the Dodgers at Camelback Ranch Thursday, March 17th, followed by a showdown with the Mariners at Peoria Sports Complex Friday, March 18, and the Reds at Salt River Fields on Saturday. The D-Backs slide into home with a double header on Sunday, March 20, against the Indians at Goodyear Ballpark and the Athletics at Phoenix Municipal Stadium.
