Dbacks Offense Slides Right Back: Dbacks 1, Padres 4
Whatever momentum seemed to have been gained by the offensive outburst last night was immediately lost 24 hours later. We are right back in the same spot we were in when we got here yesterday. Really a frustrating night for a team that was hoping to turn a corner after last night and get some […]

Will the Diamondbacks Extend Soroka’s Contract?
Quick Background of Michael Soroka. The Braves drafted him in the first round of the 2015 draft. Perhaps, 2019 was the best season of his career (All-Star, received votes for rookie of the year and Cy Young awards). In 2020, he was the Braves’ youngest opening-day starting-pitcher in the team’s modern history. A series of […]
The Arizona Diamondbacks and the 2026 Draft, Part 2: Pitching
The BLUF This year’s pool of pitching prospects is rather anemic, especially among the college arms. While many scouts have this class of high school arms as one of the better classes in several years, especially from the left side, that is still not a terribly strong endorsement. Prep pitchers are among the biggest lottery […]
Snake Bytes, 7/7: A Relaxing Night at the Park
Game Recaps Max Kepler goes yard as Diamondbacks pour it on in win over Padres by Tyler Drake [Arizona Sports] Outfielder Max Kepler hit his first home run in a Diamondbacks uniform and racked up four RBIs in Arizona’s 8-0 win over the San Diego Padres on Monday night. After bringing in Geraldo Perdomo on […]

Record: 45-45. Pace: 81-81. Change on 2025: +1. The Diamondbacks jumped on Padres starter Walker Buehler early. They scored six runs in the first three innings, and despite this being a Brandon Pfaadt start, were just able to hold on for victory. The win put Arizona back in sole possession of second place in the […]

Series Preview #30: Diamondbacks @ Padres
The good news is that we face a sub .500 team. Ah, like I said in my previous preview, which was #27, for every Series there is good news and there is bad news. The good news is that Brazil has lost. Ouch, just like last time, let me try this again: the good news […]
The Arizona Diamondbacks and the 2026 Draft, Part 1: Introduction
The Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) This is one of the strangest and also weakest drafts in recent memory. Just as the impacts of the COVID draft and season have finally worked their way out of the system, the draft is now confronted by a staggeringly mediocre pool of prospects and the new reality that […]

Team News With All-Star break approaching, D-backs know they need to pick up the pace“I think it’s the balance of moving with urgency and just having urgency, but at the same time not trying to force [things],” Carroll said. “I think when you’re in that space in this game, it’s a bad one to be […]

Diamondbacks 4, Milwaukee 3: A Win for AMERICA!
On paper, I think this was the toughest of this weekend’s matchups against the Milwaukee Brewers, who came into yesterday with the second best record in the Major Leagues. Brandon Woodruff took the mound for the Brew Crew (2-1, 2.59 ERA before today) while Merrill Kelly, who has not been great this year, was going […]
Corbin Carroll and Eduardo Rodriguez named to NL All-Star roster
The National League All-Star roster was announced tonight. The inclusion of Corbin Carroll wasn’t really a surprise. He gets his third selection in four years, coming into tonight ranked 6th for bWAR among position players in the league, at 3.3 wins. But in addition, Eduardo Rodriguez was also named to the squad, and that’s a […]

Snake Bytes 7/4: Will There Be Fireworks Tonight?
Diamondbacks News Diamondbacks Go Toe-to-Toe with Brewers, Fall in 11thJose Cabrera simply did not have his good stuff last night. Neither did the offense, who made a great comeback from being three down. But then they simply could not push the winning run across and the bullpen finally stumbled when the 11th rolled around. Can […]
Diamondbacks 4, Brewers 7: We Blinked First
Game Summary Tonight, the Diamondbacks went toe-to-toe with one of the best teams in baseball and nearly beat them at their own game. Great defense and great pitching, especially from the bullpens, was the story of this game and the loser of this was whoever blinked first. Unfortunately, it was the Diamondbacks who came up […]

Arizona Diamondbacks Series Preview # 29: Diamondbacks vs Brewers
The Brewers care about when to challenge ball/strike calls. In spring training, they tested a system that involved green index cards that were posted in the dugout in the best situations to challenge. Apparently, MLB told them to stop posting cards. An unique suspension. Brewers relief pitcher Abner Uribe was suspended for one game (served […]
Arizona Diamondbacks: July confidence poll
Well, I’m back. No more balmy 70 degree days and pleasing trips to look for bison and gaze at geysers. Wyoming was very pleasant, and I thoroughly enjoyed the disconnect for a few days. Many thanks to James and Justin for keeping things ticking over in my absence! Normal service is now being resumed… June […]
