Said it in April, said it in March, and it was glaring last night: This team's pitching wasn't deep enough or strong enough for a deep run.

The bats? These guys can hit with anyone, despite some dropoff on the road. Defense? These guys can pick it and throw it. No question.

The pitching simply wasn't good enough. It was adequate enough to get through the regular season. But in the post-season is a whole different ballgame.

(And from what we saw from the Diamondbacks, they'll need to tighten it up to get past the Dodgers, who have their own history of weak post-season pitching.)
