Giants bullpen bounces back in 6-1 win over Diamondbacks
You could make a fairly strong case that the period between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning was the worst 20-hour stretch in the history of the San Francisco Giants bullpen. On Wednesday afternoon, the bullpen took the mound for the ninth inning holding a 9-3 lead over the Cincinnati Reds, with the first series sweep […]
“You Can Do Whatever You Do”: Ex-MLB Star Defends Diamondbacks-Cubs Controversy With a Bold Take
The Diamondbacks cried foul over sign stealing, but MLB essentially told them there was nothing to complain about. Arizona accused Cubs third-base coach Quintin Berry of relaying Merrill Kelly’s pitches, only for the league to rule that Berry had done nothing illegal. Now, A.J. Pierzynski is piling on, questioning why the Diamondbacks turned a legal […] The post “You Can Do Whatever You Do”: Ex-MLB Star Defends Diamondbacks-Cubs Controversy With a Bold Take appeared first on EssentiallySport...

The final Giants-Diamondbacks series of the year
Yesterday, like this entire season, was awful and a reminder that there’s nothing good about the Giants — nor will there likely ever be anything good about them again (sorry to the fans of the farm system). So, let’s celebrate the small moments of fun. Because the Giants have to play a makeup game in […]
Arizona Diamondbacks Series Preview # 44 : Diamondbacks @ Giants
The Wild Card Race. While the Giants are out of the race, the Diamondbacks are fighting for the third NL Wild Card. The Diamondbacks need to sweep this series. Although this is a 4-game series, and played in San Francisco, perhaps the Diamondbacks will surprise by sweeping the series. This series is an opportunity because: […]

"He seems to be someone who needs positive reinforcement." pic.twitter.com/C1q8YF2wzg […] The post Ken Rosenthal reveals new information about Diamondbacks’ Ketel Marte drama appeared first on ClutchPoints .
SB Nation Reacts: Cubs fans want the Diamondbacks in a Wild Card series. You sure about that?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Cubs fans and fans across the country. Earlier this week I asked you which of the Wild Card contenders you’d rather see the Cubs face in that round, presuming the Cubs are in it […]
D-backs CEO Derrick Hall says Ketel Marte has ‘explaining to do’
PHOENIX – The situation surrounding Ketel Marte’s return is quickly becoming about more than when he can get back on the field. Marte has personally targeted the Phillies series for his return while working through a knee issue. But the circumstances surrounding his absence have created a second storyline, one involving accountability and trust. D-backs […]
Could Eugenio Suárez return to the Diamondbacks after being waived by Reds?
PHOENIX – The Arizona Diamondbacks may have a reunion opportunity worth exploring. Eugenio Suárez was recently waived by the Cincinnati Reds, opening the door for contenders to consider adding a veteran power hitter for the stretch run. For Arizona, bringing Suárez back to Chase Field would make considerably more sense than it might appear at […]
A few thoughts on the two kerfuffles during the Cubs/Diamondbacks series
In the end, these incidents probably won’t matter much to the Cubs’ postseason chances. But I think they’re both worth discussing, especially on an off day as we await the Cubs’ return to Wrigley Field for an important seven-game homestand. The two things I’m talking about are: Let’s begin with Monday’s events. Here’s Diamondbacks starter […]
Cubs star Pete Crow-Armstrong’s fiery rant calling out umps shows he doesn’t care at all they admitted to mistake

After a catcher’s balk was not called, Crow-Armstrong was irate […] The post Cubs star Pete Crow-Armstrong’s fiery rant calling out umps shows he doesn’t care at all they admitted to mistake appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Thursday Morning Links
Morning, all! Former Ranger manager Jeff Banister was involved in a shouting match between Arizona Diamondbacks’ coaches and the Chicago Cubs on Monday after Arizona accused the Cubs of stealing signs. Apparently the secret to Justin Foscue’s success, like the secret of flying in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, is to not think about it […]
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Matthew Boyd is the Superhero vs. the Diamondbacks
Tomato, tomahto. You say pitchers’ duel. I say boring. You might counter point that I’d have viewed the whole thing differently if my team had the two runs. Or if it had held on to the four-run lead Tuesday. Or the lead on Saturday. In the end, it’s just a series of disappointments and questions […]

Pete Crow-Armstrong Calls Out Umpires for 'Pretty Obvious' Missed Call in Cubs' Loss to D-Backs

Eduardo Rodriguez Delivers Again as D-Backs eke out win
I have a confession to make. This whole season, I have been waiting for the other proverbial shoe to drop for Eduardo Rodriguez. I had a difficult time believing the same pitcher who had posted consecutive seasons with ERAs north of five could somehow transform himself into a legitimate Cy Young candidate. There were some […]
Crew chief Alfonso Márquez speaks on controversial no-call during Diamondbacks, Cubs game
PHOENIX — The Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago Cubs had plenty of heated moments during their series this week, but one of the major ones came during Wednesday’s series finale.

Diamondbacks Release Zack Littell
The Diamondbacks placed Zack Littell on release waivers, according to the MLB.com transaction log. Assuming he goes unclaimed, he’ll be a free agent.

Littell made […]

The Cubs squandered another excellent starting pitching against the Diamondbacks Wednesday afternoon in the deciding game of the series.
