## Resource

Arizona Diamondbacks keep their playoff hopes alive with a decisive win over the Colorado Rockies as the Padres stumble—can Arizona pull off a miracle run to October? George Lund breaks down Michael Soroka’s dominant start, Nolan Arenado’s electrifying September surge, and the pivotal series remaining against the Padres and Rockies. With playoff scenarios on a knife’s edge, the Diamondbacks’ ability to control their destiny comes into focus, hinging on must-win games and key losses by NL rivals. Key topics include Soroka’s contract outlook amid injury concerns, Gabriel Moreno’s push for a batting title, and how Geraldo Perdomo’s elite defense offsets his offensive slump. George Lund spotlights Arizona’s underrated bullpen stars Brandyn Garcia and Juan Morillo, drawing comparisons to the legendary 2014 Royals relief core. With the Dodgers’ help needed and Merrill Kelly on a short leash, the Diamondbacks’ postseason fate could be decided this week.
