Diamondbacks News
The Arizona Diamondbacks suffered a tough blow as they placed pitcher Michael Soroka and outfielder Jordan Lawlar on the injured list, complicating an already rocky stretch following a messy 16-8 loss to the Minnesota Twins. Zac Gallen's struggles continued as he allowed ten runs in a disastrous fifth inning, highlighted by Byron Buxton's grand slam. After a promising 9-5 victory just days earlier, the D-backs have now dropped two of three to Minnesota, raising concerns about their pitching depth. With a 5-2 record in the last week, there's some momentum, but losing key players puts pressure on the roster. As the team sits at 39-36, they must quickly regroup and find consistency to stay competitive in the division.
