About this episode
Opening Day is just a week away, but the Arizona Diamondbacks are already facing a major setback: Merrill Kelly is expected to begin the 2026 season on the injured list. What does that mean for the rotation, and how long could the D-backs be without one of their most reliable arms? We break down Kelly’s timeline for return and why Zac Gallen is the obvious choice to take the ball in Los Angeles. Plus, Alex D’Agostino joins the show to dive into the latest from Spring Training, including key injuries, roster battles, and what’s trending heading into the regular season. We also recap the D-backs’ explosive 16-8 win over the Cubs, highlight Corbin Carroll’s first home run since being injured, and take a look at some more wild food creations coming to Chase Field this year.
