Zac Gallen is 3-6 with a 6.10 ERA and a 1.63 WHIP through 16 starts and 79.2 innings, the worst statistical stretch of his career. He is also one of the more fascinating names on the trade market heading toward the August 3 deadline.

Gallen re-signed with Arizona in February on a one-year, $22.025 million deal with roughly $14 million deferred, after declining the qualifying offer and failing to land the ...

The St. Louis Cardinals will begin a homestand and welcome a former teammate as the Arizona Diamondbacks come to town.

The Blue Jays announced that they have selected the contract of infielder Luis Urías. It was reported over the weekend that the Jays had acquired him from the Diamondbacks. Outfielder Yohendrick Piñango was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo as the corresponding active roster move. Toronto had a 40-man vacancy, so no corresponding move is required in […]
Atlanta Braves’ Spencer Strider went down and much of the 2026 season has been spent navigating a rotation riddled with injuries.

Across the league, […]

As the St. Louis Cardinals prepare to open a series at Busch Stadium against the Arizona Diamondbacks Monday night, they also welcome back Nolan Arenado.

The St. Louis Cardinals are a surprise contender, but they need pitching. The Arizona Diamondbacks are hovering around .500 and may be open to selling ahead of the MLB trade deadline.

Series Timing. The series timing is better than expected for the Diamondbacks. Recently, the Cardinals had a 3-game losing streak (17-19 June). Last season, they collapsed in July (8 wins, 16 losses), and this season they seem to be starting their collapse in late June. Let’s compare the teams. Offense. This season through 19 June, […]
Being the highest-paid player on a Major League Baseball team seems like a sweet gig, minus the pressure. Aaron Judge of the Yankees and Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers are thriving, while others struggle.
