9/27/24 Arizona Diamondbacks embrace pressure in final MLB postseason push. During his playing career, which included seven seasons in the Major Leagues, Torey Lovullo saw the worst of a manager following a tough loss. Above all, those experiences have provided the eighth-year Arizona Diamondbacks manager with the knowledge of the right moment and circumstance to try and send a message to his group. “I did say some things to the team last night,” Lovullo said before Wednesday's contest. Arizona flipped a switch Wednesday night, riding 11 hits and a season-high 11 strikeouts from starter Zac Gallen to defeat San Francisco 8-2 and snap a three-game skid.

Zac Gallen struck out 11 in six innings, pinch hitter Pavin Smith hit a three-run homer and the Arizona Diamondbacks ended a three-game losing streak with an 8-2 win over the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday night. Arizona needed a rebound after a losing streak that included a blown eight-run lead in a loss to Milwaukee and Tuesday's lackluster 11-0 loss to the Giants. The Diamondbacks responded behind a strong performance from their ace and are .001 behind the New York Mets for the second of three National League wild cards, a game ahead of Atlanta.

9/13/24 Diamondbacks map out rotation; Yilber Diaz receives new role. The Arizona Diamondbacks have their starting rotation mapped out “as far as we can go” with only five series remaining before the postseason. The D-backs reshuffled their starters to set up their desired matchups before the end of the year, moving Zac Gallen up to Sunday and moving back Ryne Nelson to next week's series in Colorado. A small wrench is the status of Merrill Kelly, who exited his last start with right hamstring cramping but is not expected to miss any time. Whether he starts on Monday to stay in line behind Gallen or Tuesday for an extra day of rest is to be determined.

8/25/24 The lessons the Red Sox can learn from the Diamondbacks. Zac Gallen was the wide-eyed one. "It's fun to think about being on the mound given the guys that have played here over the last 100 years," Gallen said. What Arizona has offered the Red Sox over the first two games of this three-game set is the blueprint. For starters, uncovering the kind of ace that Gallen represented in Arizona's 4-1 win Saturday a great launching pad.

8/21/24 Fitzgerald: Gallen's stubbornness cause for recent struggles. Although the Arizona Diamondbacks have been on a tear since June 29, ace Zac Gallen has not. Since that date, the D-backs have been one of the best teams in baseball at 32-13. Gallen's most recent outing, in which he allowed four runs on nine hits over five innings against the Tampa Bay Rays, raised the right-hander's ERA to 3.85 across 110 innings this season. For someone who's placed in the top five of NL Cy Young voting these last two seasons, it wouldn't be a surprise if Gallen's struggles come across as a cause for concern amid the team's recent success.
