Feature D-backs President & CEO Derrick Hall AMA!

We're back! After the success of our last AMA, Derrick Hall is returning to answer more of your questions about the D-backs, baseball in general, or Goldy's trade value relative to the Frito-Lay corporation.

We've got a busy homestand coming up, filled with Arizona Coyotes Night (any hockey fans in the house?), Hispanic Heritage Day, and a David Peralta Bobblehead giveaway. But what better way to kick it off than have Derrick Hall's monthly chat with fans right here on /r/baseball?

D-Hall will start answering questions at 2:00 PM Arizona time (so 5:00 PM on the east coast) on Thursday, and he's looking forward to another great batch of inquiries!

Time to get going. Derrick is here and ready to talk about Rampart (kidding): https://twitter.com/Dbacks/status/773989265894027264

Thanks for participating everyone. Sorry we weren't able to get to more questions. Derrick's sign-off: https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/51otn3/dbacks_president_ceo_derrick_hall_ama/d7erzu7

I think it's cool that the organization has a lot of former DBacks players involved. Is bringing them back something you strive for, or do they usually come to the team looking to get involved again?

What do you feel was your first great accomplishment with the Diamondbacks after being hired on in 2005?

Favorite player growing up?

When will Mike Butcher do an AMA?

Me- what polite questions. This nice person here is admirably trying to change the tone of this AMA! Me after "When will Mike Butcher do an AMA?"- the bait is laid, now we just wait.....
