The
#Dbacks
have the Dodgers on the brink.
TBS postgame proceeds to not interview any players, the manager, etc. or even show immediate highlights of the game and instead drool on about the Braves for nearly ten minutes.
Lack of respect.
Embrace it, and the chaos.
#Dbacks
OF Corbin Carroll is the first player in MLB history to record 10 or more triples, 25 or more doubles, 25 or more home runs, and 50 or more stolen bases in a single-season.
What a tremendously exciting and unexpected year for these
#Dbacks
No one figured this team would capture an NL Pennant and blow past expectations.
Bright days remain ahead for the men in Sedona Red.
#Dbacks
SS Nick Ahmed is 0 for his last 20 with 7 K.
Reminder, SS Geraldo Perdomo was an All-Star.
Your top organizational prospect is also a shortstop.
And you’re in the thick of a playoff hunt.
Right-handed hitters added this offseason by
#Dbacks
:
3B/DH Evan Longoria
DH/OF Kyle Lewis
C Gabriel Moreno
OF Lourdes Gurriel Jr.
Right-handed hitters lost this offseason:
INF Jake Hager
OF/C Cooper Hummel (switch)
OF Jordan Luplow
OF Stone Garrett
Quite the upgrade.
Happy 1-Year Anniversary to Mike Hazen and the
#Dbacks
front office, who acquired C Gabriel Moreno and OF Lourdes Gurriel on this date one-year ago today.
Hey everyone, I found the list of NL starting pitchers that have thrown at least 20 innings so far this year and have an ERA under 2.00 --
Just this guy...
#Dbacks
LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (4y-$80M) debuted in in 2015; Glasnow (5y-$135M) debuted in 2016.
Both men are 30 years old.
The comparable stats are something.
Lin, 20, struck out 140 batters between High-A and AA ball last year. He had 8+ SO in 8 of his 24 starts.
He has 231 strikeouts over 177.2 MiLB innings in his career. Add that to a career 3.50 ERA and 1.16 WHIP.
The
#Dbacks
signed Lin for $525k out of Taiwan in 2021.
With their win in Game 3 of the 2023 NLCS this is officially the closest the
#Dbacks
have come to being back in a World Series in 22 years.
Feels goooooood.
Technically... the
#Dbacks
have the best winning percentage in the Valley since the start of 2023.
#Dbacks
0-0 (.500)
Cardinals 0-2 (.000)
Suns 0-4 (.000)
Coyotes 0-4 (.000)

#Dbacks
Manager Torey Lovullo. Yep.
No wonky lineup changes mid-series.
Played his bullpen cards correct in *nearly* every instance. [Nearly].
Rolled with Longoria & Perdomo for 5 straight games. Both were perfect defensively (86 innings, 15 assists, 7 DP, 0 E).
Wow.
The
#Dbacks
can clinch a spot in the NLCS on Wednesday night. They are undefeated this postseason, and also undefeated on the road.

We appreciate his competitiveness however,
#Dbacks
LHP Madison Bumgarner has run his course for now.
The team cannot compete with him taking the hill every 5 days.
Merrill, Gallen and run with the kids: Ryne, Drey and Pfaadt.
Robinson, 23, is ~3.5 months younger than
#Dbacks
ROY Corbin Carroll.
He signed a contract with ARZ in '17 & didn't play an organized baseball game from 9/3/19 thru 5/29/23.
He *still* hit .283 w/ a .914 OPS in 65 MiLB games in '23.
Robinson will likely begin '23 in AA or AAA.
The
#Dbacks
will pay Paul Sewald, Andrew Saalfrank, Kyle Nelson, Luis Frias, Joe Mantiply, Kevin Ginkel, and Ryan Thompson somewhere in the neighborhood of $14.26M in 2024.

The
#Dbacks
drew 81,379 fans to
@ChaseField
during their 3-game set against the Twins.
Averaging 27,126 per game, that marks the largest attendance draw the D-backs have had in any 3-game home series this season.
Nick appeared in 888 games for the
#Dbacks
the 5th most amongst field players in club history.
Ahmed was a huge part of the '18 + '19 teams, he won Gold Gloves at shortstop in both those seasons.
Tremendous person; unfortunately things went sideways for him the last 2 seasons.
BREAKING: Left-handed starter Eduardo Rodriguez and the Arizona Diamondbacks are in agreement on a four-year contract for around $20 million a year, pending physical, sources familiar with the agreement tell ESPN.
According to this article, the
#Dbacks
have signed RHP Gerardo Gutierrez out of the Mexican League to a minor league contract.
Gutierrez, 25, had a 1.16 ERA in 24 G with Veracruz, and a 2.74 ERA in 23 G with Mazatlan in the Mexican Pacific Winter League.

The
#Dbacks
enter today with the 4th best record in the NL West, and 6th best record in the National League at 18-15.
They are 3 games back of the first place Dodgers, and 2.5 games behind the Giants for the second wild card spot.
Credit to Torey and Mike Hazen for making an extremely difficult decision. They could have easily moved Madison to the bullpen or feigned an IL stint.
#Dbacks
fans knew it, management knew it, the players knew it.
It was time, and so, we move on.
Scott McGough is broken. 10 ER in 11.1 IP. Umpire has yelled at him twice now for licking his pitching hand. Just gave up a grand slam. Torrey tried to get ejected. Gallen is injured. I’m going to bed.
Probably not too surprising but the
#Dbacks
are the only team in MLB to score 15+ runs in a game this season, twice.
Arizona’s 123 runs scored is actually 1st in baseball.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll won NL Rookie of the Year. Like Gunnar Henderson, he was unanimous. The Diamondbacks will get an extra first-round pick for Carroll's win. It's the fifth time ever both Rookies of the Year have gotten every first-place vote.
BREAKING: Left-handed starter Jordan Montgomery and the Arizona Diamondbacks are in agreement on a free agent deal, pending physical, a source tells ESPN.

OF Corbin Carroll's first taste of the postseason:
2 G
4 for 7 (.571)
3 R
8 TB
1 2B
1 HR
2 RBI
2 BB
0 K
.667 OBP
1.243 ALG
1.810 OPS
t-2nd in AVG, OBP & 3rd in SLG, OPS in postseason amongst all players
And one pimp job off a 444 foot home run.
Very happy for Nick.
Ahmed is still just 33 years old.
He is the
#Dbacks
all-time leader in dWAR (12.4), 5th in games played (888), 8th in at-bats (2897), and doubles (154), 11th in hits (678), and 13th in oWAR (12.2).
The Arizona Diamondbacks [yep, the team that opened the season at +6600 WS odds per
@BetMGM
] can clinch a World Series berth tomorrow night.
What a time to be a
#Dbacks
fan.

The
#Dbacks
[and MLB] released their "Official Clubhouse Hats" today.
These are supposedly caps players wear before/after games and in... the clubhouse.
The
#Dbacks
have won 8 of 13.
They have the 18th best winning percentage in all of baseball.
Tough crowd: The NL West is the only division in baseball with 4 teams who have winning records.
#Dbacks
OF Lourdes Gurriel, Jr. and Dodgers OF Mookie Betts are the only two players in baseball with 10 RBI.
Though Gurriel, Jr. (8 for 17, 6 R, 2 2B, 3 HR, 10 RBI, 2 BB, 1 SB, 1.118 SLG, 1.644) has accomplished the feat in two fewer games than Betts.
#Dbacks

In the last 15 days, Thomas is T-3rd on the team in hits (11), T-1st in runs (6), 2nd in batting average (.314), 3rd in OPS (.904), and total bases (20).
With the

victory today the Colorado Rockies are officially eliminated from postseason contention, which I know is the news you’re all here for.
The
#Dbacks
have reportedly agreed to a deal with international prospect OF Adriel Rodney (No. 10 on

Last one (for now).
In the 2023 MLB regular season, 58 pitchers logged 150 IP, and 17 of those pitchers also posted an ERA under 3.50.
Four of those 17 pitchers are now in the
#Dbacks
2024 starting rotation.
#Dbacks
C Carson Kelly is 5 for 34 now in July (.147 AVG) with 1 XBH.
He has not walked, and he’s struck out 10x.
He’s basically an auto-out at this point.
The
#Dbacks
used this exact lineup zero times in 162 regular season games.
They are 4-0 with this batting order in postseason play.
Baseball.
