Episode 60 -- The 2001 Arizona Diamondbacks

This week Tom tells Josh the story of the 2001 Arizona Diamondbacks, one of the most quickly successful expansion franchises.  We go over the origins of the franchise, its initial run, its going big and signing big names into the turn of the millennium, and then its magical 2001 run.  We discuss expansion yet again, go into some big names, get into what a weird season 2001 was, Josh incorrectly says Alex Rodriguez was still with the Mariners that season, and tell the Diamondbacks story... up until the 2001 World Series, because that warrants its own episode.
