Arenado, Gurriel Deliver in Ninth as D-backs Hold On vs. Cardinals

Merrill Kelly Helps D-backs Salvage Split vs. Padres; Pavin Smith DFA'd

The Diamondbacks salvaged a series split against the San Diego Padres behind a stellar outing from Merrill Kelly and just enough from the offense, including a solo home run by Nolan Arenado. What worked for Kelly in the win? We also react live to the news that the D-backs designated Pavin Smith for assignment and recalled Ryan Waldschmidt from Triple-A Reno. How will we remember Smith's complicated D-backs tenure, and what's the plan at first base moving forward? Finally, we discuss Torey Lovullo's job security as the team sits in a precarious position in the NL wild card race. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory.

Is Reid Detmers The Perfect Trade Target for the D-backs?

The Diamondbacks made it close but ultimately dropped their series to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, losing the finale, 3-2. Eduardo Rodriguez was stellar yet again, but the offense stranded too many baserunners — and perhaps got a little unlucky in the process. We discuss our takeaways and revisit several key moments from the weekend. Looking ahead to the trade deadline, we also discuss Los Angeles Angels left-hander Reid Detmers as a potential target for the Diamondbacks. What makes Detmers attractive, and what would it take to get the deal done? Finally, we discuss the D-backs' latest round of roster moves, our expectations for the upcoming Padres series and more.

Ketel Marte Homers Again, Brandon Pfaadt Shoves As D-backs Win 8th Straight vs. Giants

The Diamondbacks continued their dominance of the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday with an 8-2 win.

What were the keys to Pfaadt's success? Which other D-backs have homered in four consecutive games? We also look back on Monday's game and Eduardo Rodriguez's continued dominance.
