Diamondbacks News
With the Diamondbacks clinging to a Wild Card spot, Gabriel Moreno's breakout season is a silver lining in an otherwise uneven stretch. As Arizona fights to stay relevant in September, Moreno's contributions have become vital, his growth as a franchise catcher could be the key to a playoff push. However, it's hard to ignore the D-backs' struggles, marked by a lack of offensive consistency,averaging just 3.3 runs per game over the past week. Meanwhile, former prospect Dominic Fletcher has signed a minor league deal with the Reds, serving as a reminder of the roster churn and the need for the current squad to step up. This team isn't exactly streaking, with memories of their 2017 franchise-record 13-game win streak feeling like a distant dream.
