As the Colorado Rockies prepare to start their three game series with the Arizona Diamondbacks, they announced a series of roster moves on Thursday afternoon. Brenton Doyle was injured on Tuesday while making a diving catch, so his landing on the IL with a left-oblique contusion is not surprising. Meanwhile, Chad Stevens has absolutely been […]
It may seem obvious that the Diamondbacks are better than the Rockies. Up front, my expectation is for the Diamondbacks to win this four-game series against the Rockies. Nevertheless, let’s compare the teams. Top-level comparisons follow. The 3-game Series at Coors. In the previous two seasons, these teams split their games at Coors, but the […]

Joe Ross is a free agent again, and this time his time with Arizona appears to be over for good.

Joe Ross Heads to the Open Market The big league numbers that preceded the Reno assignment were the reason he never truly had a chance to stick. Ross broke camp with Arizona aft...
Every time the D-Backs have a dramatic finish to a game like Ketel Marte’s electric walk-off homer last night, I always half expect the team to show some lethargy the next day. That certainly hasn’t been the case this year to this point and that’s a real credit to the coaching staff and the veteran […]
It wasn’t enough that Ketel Marte broke the hearts of the San Francisco Giants with a walkoff three-run homer Tuesday night. He just had to go 3-for-3 with a walk and cross home plate as many times as the Giants’ entire team did in a 6-3 Arizona Diamondbacks win. Tyler Mahle fell to 1-6 after […]

There’s an old sketch from The State called “The Barry Lutz Show” where a doctor played by Thomas Lennon explains his research in the field of “monkey torture,” accompanied by an adorable simian. He eventually takes a phone call that purportedly tells him he has to stop torturing monkeys forever and let them all go, […]

The ABS Challenge System had indirect impacts beyond the challenges. As you know, this season the ABS challenge system arrived in the Majors. What you may or may not know is that the initial ball-strike calls had a higher accuracy this season. Let’s focus more specifically, on the overall accuracy of umpires calling pitches just […]
Game Recaps Diamondbacks get production from entire lineup in win over Giants by Alex Weiner [Arizona Sports] Not to be lost on Monday was a solid performance from D-backs starter Zac Gallen, who delivered his first quality start (six-plus innings, three earned runs or fewer) since April 1. That was the game when he blanked […]
Welcome to Tuesday everyone! We were treated to some grade-A pitching last night from young right-hander J.T. Ginn. For eight innings the 26-year-old only allowed one walk while taking a no-hitter into the ninth. We’re going to ignore what happened in the final inning from last night’s game because we can. That performance dropped Ginn’s […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants continue their local road trip later today when they take on the Arizona Diamondbacks. In the meantime, I thought we’d take a moment to watch a video that the team’s social media crew put out last week on their YouTube channel. In the video, Giants players answer […]

Record: 23-23. Pace: 81-81. Change on 2025: -1. I’ve learned not to tempt the baseball gods by starting on the recap too early. The only time I did so far this season, was the game against the Orioles, where the D-backs led 7-2 in the middle of the sixth inning. It… did not end well. […]

The Diamondbacks did what they were supposed to do in Colorado and took two out of three against the Rockies, though it was touch and go there for a while. They remain below .500, however, and they’ll be looking for another series against a struggling team to leapfrog up past that point again. The Giants […]
