Summary

The Arizona Diamondbacks’ two biggest problems were on full display Tuesday night in a 7-4 loss to the Texas Rangers. The D-backs’ offense once again struggled to generate runs, while Zac Gallen continued to be the lone weak spot in a starting rotation that has otherwise been dominant over the past week. We break down another rough outing for Gallen, why we knew Arizona’s lineup would overmatched by Mackenzie Gore, and the difficult decision the organization may soon have to make regarding their former ace. Plus, we discuss Alek Thomas being traded to the Dodgers and why this outcome feels like a nightmare scenario for the Snakes.
