Turns out slam-fest over the weekend against the Chicago White Sox means very little to Merrill Kelly, Ketel Marte, and the Arizona Diamondbacks. The five days that elapsed between the Giants last meeting with starter Kelly wasn’t enough to cleanse the palate. The 2026 Giants can’t figure him out, nor could they over the past […]

The San Francisco Giants welcome the Arizona Diamondbacks to Oracle Park this afternoon to begin a three-game series. Just like we did last week, only this time at home! As of the time this is being pre-written (due to the holiday), neither team has announced pitchers for this game. So make sure you head down […]
MLB vs FIFA. To write a preview when you have not even one day between the previous series and the upcoming one, on a weekday, definitely adds to the time pressure. Luckily for me, the opponent for the next series is the San Francisco Giants. We saw them just a couple of days ago. That, […]
One of the things I am always sensitive to is the ratio between positive and negative news. The analysis itself is neutral, but what we choose to analyze is never neutral. We will always come in with preconceived notions about what we are likely to find. So, every once in awhile I want to highlight […]

Ryne Nelson threw a career-high eight innings with one earned run, while the offense supplied […]
Diamondbacks 9, Rockies 1: [Guest recap]
After three close contests in the desert where the Colorado Rockies lost by just one run in two of them (and won by one in the other), the series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks went anything but according to plan. The Rockies were bullied for nine runs while failing to get anything going on offense. […]
Postgame updates: Quintana spoke to the media after the game and said his elbow is feeling “quite painful.” “In the second inning, I felt stress in my elbow,” he said. “It was the first time I’ve felt [that].

Team News Lovullo gave Marte a piece of advice, and he’s been mashing ever sinceMarte, though, asked to move back into the leadoff spot a few weeks ago — “We were winning games then,” Lovullo recalled him saying — but the real difference has been his dedication to getting back on track. “I just said, […]
Ah, Zac Gallen. Our one-time ace, more recently our collective repository of remarkably persistent hopes and dreams and aspirations of the “he just needs to get his mojo back and he’ll be an ace again!” variety, our late-breaking $25 Million Dollar Man (with some money deferred, of course) as we got ready to set sail […]
The Colorado Rockies dug themselves into a few holes and weren’t quite able to climb out of them. Michael Lorenzen fought traffic all night, and the offense wasn’t able to string together enough hits to put them over the top. They ended up losing, 5-4. Traffic jams prove costly for Michael Lorenzen Michael Lorenzen battled […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks were taking calls on three-time All-Star second baseman Ketel Marte this past summer. They didn't really want to trade him, but it was known around baseball that they were at least listening . With a middling start to the season (26-24 going into Saturday's action and 3rd place in the NL West), will they eventually decide to waive the white flag, save some money and reload? If so, Marte will still be able to bring them back a huge haul. But not if they wait too l...

Game Summary The Diamondbacks starting rotation has been on another level over the last couple weeks, and that trend continued tonight with Michael Soroka earning another Quality Start, their league-leading 13th this month. With only 78 pitches thrown after six innings and only a single run allowed, it looked like it was a no-brainer for […]
Lineups not yet announced We did previously highlight how well the D-backs’ bullpen is pitching this month. While their ERA has crept up a little from the sub-two figure, it’s still a thoroughly respectable 2.08. That’s fourth-best in the majors, and they are also the only bullpen to have a WHIP below one.
