Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen (shoulder) had a promising outing in his Spring Training debut on Wednesday. He pitched 2 2/3 innings and allowed one hit, no walks and no runs while striking out two. He utilized each of his pitches and his velocity was solid on each. He was hitting 94-95 mph on his fastball. Gallen has been behind schedule this spring as he's dealt with right shoulder bursitis. He will miss his first start of the year, which would have come during the team's second game of the season, but he may wind up making his first start just a few days later. Gallen threw 36 pitches in Wednesday's outing and also added nine more pitches in the bullpen to continue working his way up to game form.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen turned in an excellent start in a 4-2 win over the New York Mets on Thursday. Gallen allowed one run on two hits over six innings of work while striking out eight and walking three. His only mistake in the contest was a solo homer to Juan Soto in the sixth inning. Gallen has been off to a rough start in 2025, posting a 2-4 record, 4.93 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, and 43 strikeouts over 38 1/3 innings of work. That being said, he has a strong track record over his career, so fantasy managers will want to stay patient with him. Hopefully his taming of a tough Mets lineup on Thursday is the first step in the right direction for Gallen.--Matt T - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen looked untouchable on Wednesday, striking out 13 batters over 6 ⅔ shutout innings in a 4-3 win against the Yankees. The Yankees and their torpedo bats have gained a lot of attention over the recent days, but the bats don't matter if they don't make contact. Gallen collected 24 whiffs on the night for a whiff rate of 57%. His knuckle curveball was the most effective of his pitches, collecting 13 whiffs all on its own. He'll look to carry this momentum into his next start, currently lined up to be against the Orioles.--Jeremy Heist - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen had a respectable outing in Thursday's spring training matchup against the Athletics. He threw 4 ⅓ innings, allowing five hits, two walks, two strikeouts, and one earned run. It was nothing flashy, but it was a good outing he can build off of, as Opening Day is less than a week away. Gallen has already been named the team's Opening Day starter for next Thursday, March 27, against the Chicago Cubs. Last season, Gallen saw a bit of a dip in production as his 3.47 ERA in 2023 rose to 3.65 in 2025. Gallen's strikeout rate also fell to a career-low 25.1%. Nonetheless, Gallen is a proven starter in the MLB. He should provide fantasy managers with a productive season, even with the D-backs bringing on Corbin Burnes during the off-season.--Nicho Roessler - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen will be the team's Opening Day starter next Thursday, March 27, against the Chicago Cubs, according to MLB.com's Steve Gilbert. It's a bit of a surprise that the D-backs didn't go with offseason acquisition Corbin Burnes, but instead they'll roll with the 29-year-old Gallen for the third straight year on Opening Day. Gallen has a little pressure off of him at the top of Arizona's rotation now that Burnes is in tow. He's not a fantasy ace by any means, but he makes for a solid No. 3 fantasy starter and should be rolled out there in his first start of the year against the Cubs. Gallen's strikeout rate fell to a career-low 25.1%, but he's notorious for being one of the best strike-throwers in the game. It seems unlikely that Gallen will ever be a fantasy ace again like he was in 2022, but you could do a lot worse as your SP2 or SP3.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
