Let's hope our days worrying about the #Dbacks bullpen are in the past.
For the 1st time since '18, the Arizona bullpen finished with a combined ERA below 4.15 and top 16 in baseball.
The 'Pen Breakout Squad
Garcia, 1.93 ERA
Morillo, 2.24 ERA
Loaisiga, 2.42 ERA
Clarke, 2.96 ERA

Admittedly, I do not know the DFA ratio per year by MLB GMs, but this list will give you some insight of the #Dbacks yearly roster churn going back to '23.
I think the scrutiny on Hazen (and deserved) in '26 was the amount of high profile, MLB-level DFAs he had to cycle through.

I need to do some tinkering here and there with some of the salary numbers... nonetheless, this should give y'all a good idea of what lies ahead this offseason for the #Dbacks.

Over the past three seasons the #Dbacks have missed the playoffs by 5.0 combined games and an in-season tiebreaker.
They either find a new leader that can get them over the top, or continue with the status quo.
All 3 NL WC teams in ‘26 have hired a new manager since 2024.

Welp. It’s been a season. That’s for sure. Fun but frustrating at times.
The manager carousel has already started with Dan Wilson ousted in Seattle. I suspect we’ll know more about Torey Lovullo’s situation late this week.

IMO, if the Phillies game gets rained out, you CANCEL the #Dbacks-Padres game today and play both games tomorrow at the same start time.
This is a group stage of the World Cup scenario where one team should not have an advantage over the other, be it Philly or Arizona.

Gabriel Moreno was pinch hit for because his hamstring was acting up. Torey Lovullo said the expectation is he will be back in the lineup tomorrow.
Moreno said he tried hitting in the cages and couldn’t push off his leg.
They’ll see how he feels tomorrow.

Minimal chance the Phillies game gets in today.
#Dbacks need to take care of business, cannot say much more than that.

Look, I’m no baseball manager, nor do I pretend to be one here, but my mind is blown Torey pinch hits ADC for Gabi with the bases loaded and no outs.

Tonight’s result also makes you wonder why Ryne Nelson was used in a blowout last night… instead of Cabrera.
Dennis Santana has probably run his course in the bullpen. The Derek Law DFA also looks weird now too.
Easy for me to be a keyboard warrior though…
On to tomorrow.

Valiant effort in the 9th inning to score 3 runs off Miller. Some really perplexing managing in the 9th allowing ADC to pinch hit, and I’d probably have stumped for Lawlar over Vargas considering a HR would have tied the game. Felt like over-managing.

Assuming tonight’s result holds, tomorrow’s equation is very simple.
#Dbacks win, Phillies lose, Arizona is playing October baseball.
