Good morning. [🐍🐦]

#Dbacks 3B Eugenio Suarez (95 RBI, game-winner last night) is on his way to his 1st 100+ RBI season since '19 (103) & may also set a career high (104). Geno is (still) red-hot, hitting .339 over his last 30 games (11 HR, 31 RBI) & .519(!) with a 1.000 SLG over his last 7 games.

#Dbacks Zac Gallen has failed to pitch into the 6th inning in 5 of his last 7 starts (he's only completed 7 innings in 2 of his 26 starts; 7.6%). He finished 7+ innings in 11 of his 34 starts last year (32.3%). Walks continue to be an issue too (20 over his last 43.1 IP).

#Dbacks LHP A.J. Puk extended his scoreless innings streak to 17.2 yesterday. Over that stretch: 7 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 28 K, 0.56 WHIP His ERA in the desert is now 0.43 over 21 IP (4 BB, 33 K, 0.67 WHIP). He is 1 of 14 pitchers that has allowed 5 or fewer barrels in '24.

A couple #Dbacks flying under the radar: C Adrian Del Castillo | 7 for 14 (.500), 3 R, 3 2B, HR, 5 RBI after a 1 for 18 stretch; Hitting .313 w/ a .525 SLG over 80 AB OF Randal Grichuk | 15 of his last 36 (.417) with 6 HR and 16 RBI; Post All-Star break 14 of 27 hits are XBH

Last night marked the #Dbacks 9th walk-off win of the year, the most walk-off-wins they've had in a full season since 2017 (also 9). With 83 victories the '24 D'backs are the 13th team in club history that will finish with a winning record. 83 wins is 11th most in team history.

#Dbacks Weekend MiLB Notables [1] Reno Aces 09/14 RHP Humberto Castellanos | 6 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, BB, 7 K 1B Tim Tawa | 2 for 4, R, HR (9), SB (2) 09/15 3B Jordan Lawlar | 1 for 2, R, HR (2), RBI, 2 BB C Ronaldo Hernandez | 1 for 3, R, HR (11), 2 RBI, BB

#Dbacks Weekend MiLB Notables [2] Amarillo Sod Poodles 09/14 OF Gavin Conticello | 1 for 4, R, HR (1), RBI, 2 K 09/15 LHP Spencer Giesting | 4 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 5 K Rough weekend for the offense (1 run and 7 hits over 18 innings).

24.1% (or nearly a quarter) of the #Dbacks victories this season, they have managed to score 10 or more runs. 10+ runs in a game by season-- 2024: 20 2023: 10 2022: 10 2021: 9 2019: 16 2018: 5 2017: 22 2016: 17 2015: 10 2014: 8 2013: 12 2012: 13 2011: 11 2010: 13 2009: 13

#Dbacks RHP Scott McGough's last six appearances with Reno: 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 6 K However, I (presume) he'll be occupying the "mop-up" role RHP Paul Sewald was in.

#Dbacks OF Corbin Carroll is now tied for the single season club record for 3B in a season and outright leads all MLB players with 14 3B this season.

What a ridiculous loss.

A couple back-end 'pen arms for the #Dbacks are starting to wear down (at the wrong time). September stats: RHP Ryan Thompson | 8.44 ERA, 2.44 WHIP, 5.1 IP, 10 H, 5 ER, 3 BB, 8 K (6.88 ERA over last 18 G) RHP Kevin Ginkel | 15.43 ERA, 2.57 WHIP, 4.2 IP, 10 H, 8 ER, 3 HR, 7 K

After a rough return to the rotation in August (6.75 ERA over 21.1 IP) #Dbacks RHP Merrill Kelly looks to be returning to his old form. Over his last 3 starts: 3.18 ERA, 17.0 IP, 12 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 4 BB, 16 K, 0.94 WHIP Teams are hitting just .204 off Kelly with RISP.

Through all games played last night, #Dbacks OF Corbin Carroll remains the MLB leader in triples (14). The last MLB player to hit more than 14 triples in a season was Eddie Rosario (MIN) in 2015 w/ 15. Ketel Marte was the last D'back to lead MLB in triples back in '18 w/ 12.

Even with a (bad) loss the #Dbacks (83-67) maintain a 2.0 game lead on ATL to clinch a playoff berth. Remaining strength of schedule (Tankathon.com)-- 2. NYM 12. ARZ 22. ATL 25. SDP Playoff odds-- Baseball Reference [90.1%] FanGraphs Baseball [83.1%] Baseball Prospectus [93.1%] Magic number: 11

#Dbacks 1B Christian Walker is 5 for 6 against tonight's Rockies' starter RHP Ryan Feltner. 2 2B, 2 HR, 6 RBI, BB, .833 AVG, 2.167 SLG, 3.042 OPS Feltner's last three starts v. ARZ: 12.0 IP, 16 H, 15 R, 12 ER, 2 HR, HBP, 8 BB, 10 K
