About this episode
Eduardo Rodriguez’s time with the Arizona Diamondbacks hasn’t lived up to the $80 million price tag, but is 2026 the year everything changes? We break down E-Rod’s struggles, what went wrong, and why his dominant World Baseball Classic championship performance could be the turning point that finally unlocks his full potential in the desert. We also hear from Derrick Hall on the latest offseason upgrades to Chase Field and why there’s a growing belief that something special could be brewing for this D-backs team in 2026. Plus, with a surprising vacancy at a Tucson baseball stadium, we throw out some ideas on what could come next.
