Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Geraldo Perdomo is hitting out of the leadoff spot Monday as he takes on Kansas City Royals right-hander Brad Keller.

Drey Jameson Likely To Be Sent To Minors

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Drey Jameson appears to have been sent to the minors as his locker sits empty at Chase Field in Arizona.

Happy Monday, everyone. I hope you had a great weekend filled with baseball. We welcome the work week back with a seven-game slate.

Christian Walker Not In The Lineup On Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Christian Walker is getting the day off for Sunday's series finale against the San Diego Padres. Walker was also plunked on the forearm in Saturday's contest so a day off won't hurt the veteran slugger.

Who Is The Diamondbacks Closer? Fantasy Baseball Saves Outlook

One of the most valued and sometimes hard-to-find things in fantasy baseball is saves.

Potential Breakout Hitters for Fantasy Baseball - Early Plate Discipline Improvers

Early in the fantasy baseball season, it's so easy to overreact to what we see on the field. We want every early home run barrage or max velocity to be a sign of a pending breakout, but the truth of the matter is that a lot of it is just noise less than 20 games […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After an injury to starting outfielder Kyle Lewis, the Arizona Diamondbacks called up minor-league outfielder Pavin Smith.

Brandon Pfaadt - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Brandon Pfaadt, SP, Arizona Diamondbacks ANALYSIS: There were some flirtations with Pfaadt making the Major League rotation out of camp, but he couldn't quite crack it.
