Diamondbacks News
The Arizona Diamondbacks are feeling the pinch as injuries continue to plague their roster, with Michael Soroka now sidelined with shoulder inflammation just as they prepare to face the Chicago Cubs. Merrill Kelly, who last earned a win on July 22, will be crucial in righting the ship against a tough opponent, while the team desperately awaits the return of All-Star Ketel Marte, who is expected back next week. As the D-backs sit at 69-62, their pitching staff's struggles have led to a troubling average of 6.4 runs allowed per game over the past week, contributing to a run differential of -11 during that stretch. With a lukewarm vibe and a critical series against the Cubs looming, every game becomes a chance to reclaim momentum as the season heads into its final stretch.
