Diamondbacks News
Mathematics have not yet deemed the Diamondbacks out of it.
On Tuesday, September 22, 2026, the Arizona Diamondbacks secured a victory over the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado. Kevin Ginkel and Gabriel Moreno were among the players who celebrated the win. Nolan Arenado had yet again demonstrated his powerful hitting. Michael Soroka had put forth a strong performance on the mound. The Diamondbacks' win kept them in contention with the Philadelphia Phillies and brought them closer to the San Diego Padres in the standings.
Despite Nolan Arenado's outstanding 2026 season, the trade from St. Louis was deemed a beneficial move for both the Diamondbacks and Cardinals. This mirrors a previous successful trade scenario, where popular franchise cornerstone Paul Goldschmidt was traded to the Diamondbacks by Arizona. Both trades have evidently been advantageous for the respective teams.
The Diamondbacks received a C+ grade for the 2026 season, which seems to be a fair assessment. The ongoing labor dispute between players and management seems unlikely to be resolved without both parties making concessions. The San Diego Padres have become a focal point in the MLB labor battle, as they advocate for a salary cap, believing it can create a fairer playing field without one.
As the 2026-27 NPB free agent class develops, there are promising players anticipated to be available. However, it is improbable that Arizona would pursue any of them.
