POTENTIAL ROOKIE IMPACT: ARCHIE BRADLEY and JAKE LAMB will start the season in the majors. BRADEN SHIPLEY should be on the roster by midseason.


COMMENTS:   On 4/5 the Diamonbacks released veteran OF CODY ROSS. Potential closer DAVID HERNANDEZ coming off Tommy John Surgery will start the year as a setup man when he comes off the DL in mid April.  Challenging for a rotation spot down the road will be rooklie lefthander VIDAL NUNO.
