Corbin Carroll Wins NL Rookie Of The Year Award

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll was unanimously named the 2023 National League Rookie of the Year on Monday.

The 23-year-old […]

Early 2024 Fantasy Baseball ADP Analysis: Catcher, 1st Base, and 2nd Base

Remember years ago when you'd have to wait until at least January to draft? Not anymore. When one season ends, another begins.

Diamondbacks Decline Mark Melancon's 2024 Option

The Arizona Diamondbacks declined their $5 million mutual option for the 2024 season on right-hander Mark Melancon (shoulder) over the weekend. Instead, Arizona will give Melancon a $2 million buyout as he hits the open market this offseason.
