The Braves signed first baseman Carlos Santana to a minor league deal, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN. Santana was released by the Diamondbacks on Friday. Arizona inked Santana to a $2MM deal in the spring. The agreement saw the veteran play just eight games with the club. Santana went down with an adductor strain in […]
Before you could grab your hot dog, popcorn, and preferred pilsner beverage, the Diamondbacks took a 1-0 lead on a Geraldo Perdomo double, Corbin Carroll single, and a whiff of a tag from catcher Hunter Feduccia. In the bottom half of the first, Junior Caminero hit a thunderous, sky-scraping blast for his sixth homer in […]
I was initially going to call this “Bouncy Castle Blues,” because that’s what Tropicana Field reminds me of as much as anything. With its synthetic fabric top, and its weirdly springy turf, and the fact that try as we might we never seem to play competent baseball there, it seems fitting. But that would have […]
While Deandre Ayton’s debut season in Los Angeles wasn’t the perfect fit, it was still a strong season for the big man, all things considered. His numbers were, naturally, down from previous season, but given his role as the fourth fiddle on offense, that’s to be expected. He still had his most efficient season as […]
The Jarren Duran mess in Boston continues. The 2024 All-Star has been anything but since then. His numbers slumped across the board last season, and he's hit career lows in 2026. Batting .201 with a .622 OPS, it's fair to wonder how much value the Red Sox outfielder has left on the trade market. Sean MacAdam of MassLive wrote earlier this year that " The Diamondbacks have long coveted Jarren Duran." If their interest hasn't waned in the light of this ugly season, we have a proposed trade...
Mike Giardi kicks off a two-part series ranking the top 32 quarterbacks in the NFL — strictly based on what he expects from each guy this season, not career legacy or long-term outlook.

49ers 49ers OT Colton McKivitz enters the seventh year of his career. McKivitz is hoping to reach the decade mark with the organization after being cut and working his way up from the practice squad in 2021. “I want to be on that 10-year wall. I don’t want to leave here. Obviously being cut, I’ve […] The post NFC Notes: Aaron Donald, Myles Garrett, 49ers, Cardinals, Rams appeared first on NFLTradeRumors.co .
The Arizona Cardinals aren’t expected to do much this year. That much is certain.On paper, the team doesn’t have much talent on the roster.We already know who the stars will be on the roster. Tight end Trey McBride and safety Budda Baker are perennial pro-bowlers who will make a major impact on the Cardinals’ season. Despite […] The post Former Cardinals First Round Pick Labeled as ‘Season Definer’ appeared first on HEAVY .
Why I (Usually) Won’t Rank Dbacks Pitchers If it feels like I’ve been going out of my way to not talk about any of the pitchers in the Diamondbacks farm system, you’d be mostly correct thinking that. I am more comfortable analyzing the various aspects of a position player’s development than I am doing the […]
Diamondbacks News Diamondbacks Reach Halfway Point with Same Record as Last YearZac Gallen had another terrible first inning. There’s no getting around that fact. But then, Gallen found his groove and looked much like the Gallen of old as he mowed down the next 15 hitters. But then, his luck ran out in the seventh […]
Merriam-Webster defines Schadenfreude as the enjoyment obtained from seeing or hearing about the troubles of others. As sports fans, you probably experience it all the time. If you root for the Bears, perhaps you experience it when the Packers lose. If you root for the Cardinals, you may giggle when a Lincoln Park yuppie slips […]
Day one of the 2026 National Hockey League draft is in the books. All but one Pacific Division team made at least one selection in the first round, while 13 trades were made on Jun. 26. Let’s take a look at what the eight Pacific Division teams did, as well as the notable trades that…
When Brayden Burries had his name called at the 2026 NBA Draft on Tuesday, one of the people he hugged immediately afterward was Tommy Lloyd. Dressed in a tan blazer and slacks, while the rest of Burries’ family donned black, Lloyd looked like as much like a proud parent as anyone else in the room. […]
Introduction In the latest example of the linear passage of time, it’s already the halfway point of the baseball season as the D-Backs played their 81st game today in their loss against the Rays. This first half of the season has featured some high highs and some even lower lows. It’s also continued the mystifying […]
The Diamondbacks officially released veteran first baseman Carlos Santana, according to the MLB.com transaction log. That was expected after he was designated for assignment on Wednesday. Santana signed a $2MM free agent deal leading up to Spring Training. A switch-hitter who is better from the right side, he signed to take a short side platoon […]
Somewhere in another baseball universe, the Arizona Diamondbacks challenge a called ball, and it gets overturned as strike three. Junior Caminero walks back to the dugout, shaking his head, and Friday night’s game unfolds a little differently. That is not the universe the Tampa Bay Rays played in on Friday night. Instead of Diamondbacks catcher […]
Game Summary Impressive was the word that Steve Berthiaume kept coming back to when describing Zac Gallen’s start tonight. Can’t say many Diamondbacks fans would agree with that assessment; the ‘Pit sure wasn’t buying it. To be fair, Zac Gallen had one of his best in-game stretches of the season, setting down 15 straight at […]
TAMPA BAY — It wasn’t a question of if, but when Arizona Diamondbacks star Corbin Carroll would break the franchise record for triples. On Friday against the Tampa Bay Rays, he did just that. Carroll has been known for his speed since making his major league debut in 2022, combining elite speed with power and […]
PHOENIX – After Koa Peat’s introductory press conference, one Phoenix Suns star made sure to welcome him to the Valley as Jalen Green sought out the rookie with a simple but meaningful greeting. “Welcome to the family, it’s gonna be lit. We’re gonna have a good year.” That quote’s significance shouldn’t be overlooked. Jalen Green […]
What Monti Ossenfort has done on paper for the Arizona Cardinals offense is striking. ESPN dropped their rankings for the best offensive weapons in the NFL and the Arizona Cardinals are highly thought of. There’s a scenario in which Love and Harrison live up to expectations, Wilson is able to sustain the sort of form […]
PHOENIX – Few moments define an athlete quite like draft night. For Koa Peat, the 2026 NBA Draft wasn’t just about hearing his name called; it became fuel. The newest Phoenix Suns rookie was frustrated with how the draft played out, but is happy with how the situation played out, per Duane Rankin of AZCentral. […]

The Phoenix Suns officially released the schedule for their first four 2026 NBA Summer league games Friday. The team will likely include the team’s first-round pick, Koa Peat, recent signings Sam Hoiberg and Corey Camper Jr., and 2025 draft picks Khaman Maluach and Rasheer Fleming. Last season, the team went 2-3 in the Summer League, […]
Jacoby Brissett's appearance at the Arizona Cardinals' mandatory minicamp didn't signal any change in his desire to land a new contract befitting his starting status.
