  • Who Makes the Cut? D-backs Roster Down to Wire As Opening Day Draws Near
    Mar 22 2026

    Opening Day is only a few days away, but the Diamondbacks still have several roster decisions to make, including three bullpen spots and a couple of bench spots. Who are the top candidates? And why did the team choose to option newly acquired right-hander Kade Strowd?

    We also dive in to the Diamondbacks' freshly announced starting rotation, with Ryne Nelson set to start the second game of the year. Is Nelson poised to reach new heights in 2026? We also discuss Brandon Pfaadt's strong spring training as he looks to get his sweeper back on track.

    Finally, we discuss several spring training standouts, including Alek Thomas and Jorge Barrosa. Could this be Thomas' breakout season? Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.

  • Mailbag: Do D-backs Have Enough Pitching To Contend In 2026?
    Mar 16 2026

    The Diamondbacks' latest injury scare involved catcher Gabriel Moreno. Is it possible he misses time with forearm tightness? We also discuss the latest on Merrill Kelly and Jack's observations of Saturday's game against the Giants.

    Then, we dive into your mailbag questions. Do the D-backs have enough to pitching to make the playoffs? Is it possible that they could still add to the bullpen? Is Paul Sewald's uptick in velocity sustainable?

    We also discuss whether Alek Thomas could be on the trade block, Lourdes Gurriel Jr's role once he returns from injury and more. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.

  • Zac Gallen Named D-backs Opening Day Starter — How Will Rest of Roster Shake Out?
    Mar 13 2026

    With Zac Gallen set to make his fourth consecutive Opening Day start for the Diamondbacks, how will the team's remaining starting pitchers line up after him? We investigate possible scenarios, and look back on Gallen's past Opening Day starts in Arizona.

    Meanwhile, Corbin Carroll played in a Cactus League game, and we make our next attempt at projecting the Opening Day roster. Is the bench effectively decided at this point? How many spots are up for grabs in the bullpen? We discuss our thoughts on Drey Jameson, Andrew Hoffmann, Kade Strowd and other relievers who appear to be on the roster bubble.

    Finally, with temperatures expected to reach triple digits next week, how are the Diamondbacks preparing? Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.
