Here’s a wild stat.

#Dbacks relievers have logged 179.2 IP so far. That is second *fewest* in baseball to the Dodgers.

Credit to the starting staff, and the relief core for getting outs when necessary.

He's not even half Gallen now, he is half pint.

Once #Dbacks LHP A.J. Puk is healthy and ready to return, it will be very interesting to see how the bullpen shakes out.

Sewald, Ginkel, Thompson, Morillo, Loasiga, Clarke, and Garcia all have ERAs below 3.75.

Optioning Brandon Pfaadt means you lose your long-man.

Looks like Torey’s private talk with the pitchers worked. Now the batters?

Late night bomb from Gambo, as Kade Strowd is being called up!

Strowd has posted fantastic ground ball rates alongside limiting barrels, which should play well in the majors!

Stuff has looked good, but there's room for concern about his command.

The @Dbacks are optioning RHP Brandon Pfaadt to Triple-A Reno. RHP Taylor Clarke is being placed on the bereavement/family medical emergency list. Kade Strowd and Philip Abner are being called up.

Pfaadt deserves an opportunity to throw meaningful innings, not just garbage time mop up duty.

See what he can fetch on the open market.

Ok now that is out, I would not comment on a players personal life but did tell you no trade, no DFA and no on anyone getting send to the minors - Taylor Clarke will get a couple of days to deal with a family emergency so that is the other roster sport that was opened.
