Diamondbacks Showing Interest In Justin Turner
The Arizona Diamondbacks are looking to upgrade at the third base position this offseason. The organization is reportedly expressing interest in veteran third baseman Justin Turner. The 38-year-old is coming off a surprisingly strong season with the Boston Red Sox in 2023. Turner slashed .276/.345/.455 with 23 homers and a career-high 96 RBI in 626 […]

Early 2024 Fantasy Baseball ADP Analysis: Catcher, 1st Base, and 2nd Base
Remember years ago when you'd have to wait until at least January to draft? Not anymore. When one season ends, another begins. We live in a time where sites like NFBC and Fantrax allow you to draft for the following season as early as October, and many of us degenerates take advantage of that. For […]
Diamondbacks Decline Mark Melancon's 2024 Option
The Arizona Diamondbacks declined their $5 million mutual option for the 2024 season on right-hander Mark Melancon (shoulder) over the weekend. Instead, Arizona will give Melancon a $2 million buyout as he hits the open market this offseason. The move was entirely expected, as the 38-year-old right-handed veteran reliever missed all of 2023 due to […]

Free MLB Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (11/1/23)
Yesterday was very interesting in the World Series as we saw Adolis Garcia and Max Scherzer get taken off the roster because of injuries. One had to think that would be a giant blow to the Rangers with Andrew Heaney on the mound. They responded by scoring 11 runs and commanding a 3-1 lead. Will […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks claimed right-hander Chris Rodriguez off waivers from the Los Angeles Angels on Monday, according to sources. The 25-year-old reliever hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2021 but has a live arm and a 3.64 ERA in 15 major-league appearances with the Angels, with all of them coming in 2021. The 25-year-old […]

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Merrill Kelly threw seven innings of one-run baseball during Game 2 of the World Series Saturday night.

Arizona Diamondback outfielder Corbin Carroll will swap places in the lineup with Ketel Marte. The Texas Rangers will start Jordan Montgomery for Game 2, moving the lefty-hitting Carroll down a slot.

Jace Peterson Added To World Series Roster For Arizona
Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Jace Peterson was added to the World Series roster in place of pitcher Slade Cecconi.

Alek Thomas Hitting Seventh In Game 1
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Alek Thomas is in the lineup for Game 1 of the World Series, hitting seventh for the away team.
