Zac Gallen Expected to Make his Next Start
Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen (shoulder) was feeling better over the weekend, according to manager Torey Lovullo, and the club is more encouraged that he will be able to make his next start, per Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic. Gallen was hit on his right (throwing) shoulder by a line drive on Saturday night in Mexico City in the opener of a two-game series against the San Diego Padres. He made it through three innings before being pulled early, allowing no runs on just one hit while walking none and striking out three. The 30-year-old's next scheduled outing will come this weekend against the hot-hitting Chicago Cubs. The former third-round pick by the St. Louis Cardinals in 2016 out of North Carolina has looked good so far in 2026 despite a lack of strikeouts, posting a 3.14 ERA and 1.36 WHIP with 17 strikeouts and seven walks in 28 2/3 innings pitched over six starts. DFS managers will probably want to fade Gallen this weekend against the Cubs coming off his shoulder injury.
