As usual, one of the main off-season projects will involve reviewing all the players to have pulled on Sedona Red this year, from the everyday men down to the “Who’s he?” of relievers. The order in which this is done is determined by the overall ranking score from 1 to 10, and this very page is where we’ll find that out. Below, you’ll find a form listing in random order, all the Diamondbacks who appeared in 2025, along with manager Torey Lovullo, GM Mike Hazen – and one who didn’t appear, but still had an impact. It’s up to you to determine the criteria used for your ranking, but I’d be inclined not to over-think it too much. If you find yourself agonizing over whether a fringe utility infielder is a 2 or a 3, you’re doing it wrong. There are no incorrect answers here…
That said, there is a field for SnakePit username, mostly to prevent ballot-stuffing (since the questions are in random order, it may appear anywhere). We do scan the results for sanity and obvious attempts at skewing the results. For reasons of operational security (!), we will not divulge the precise criteria we use, but if you rate certain players as a nine, your ballot will be unlikely to form part of the final results, under the “feeble minded” exclusion clause. 🙂 You’ve got about a week to complete the ballot: we’ll start the reviews very shortly after the World Series.
The form is below or is linked here for those on mobile devices. Feel free to explain yourself in the comments!
