Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen is a legitimate Cy Young candidate with his 1.05 ERA tied for the best in baseball.

Too bad the rest of the team lets him down too often.

6 straight scoreless starts for zac. Ties MLB record.

So he is eligible for arbitration next year? I really don't understand the implications of that. I know the Yanks have been targeting him. It is clear as mud to me. Anyone?

Yes he is eligible for arbitration next year. He has three more years of club control

So any idea what he could command in salary? Can we pay him and keep him as opposed to giving up future hall of famers like we did with Max?

He will get a big bump. I won’t guess what arbitration will get him.

My hope is that we just end up in the off-season doing a long-term contract.

Gallen is a far better picture right now then Scherzer was when traded.

Time for this team to stop giving away all its talent, and start to build around these guys. It has been way too long since this team was relevant. Oh, the Yankees are interested? They can go pound sand.
