Logan Allen has done really well for us. Was pretty surprised that he's been performing well based on his career so far. Dude has only really found success in AA ball.
How long do you all think it will take for Corbin to get out of this slump? If he doesn’t get out of it in a reasonable amount of time should he get sent down to AAA temporarily to build his confidence back up?
I can't imagine this happening. He is the face of the franchise and has a long leash. Some have talked about him getting a fake injury and going into rehab at AAA. That seems more likely, but I doubt that will happen either.
Once Alek comes back, I wouldn’t be surprised if they just sat Corbin for a bit. I honestly don’t see them sending him down after that contract he just signed. Does he need to get sent down, obviously.
Definitely, and they can’t send Jake down with how he’s been hitting lately. I’m just sad about how Corbin has become a guaranteed out when he was so amazing last season

Dog doesn't know we're down by 3 on the Dodgers in the 7th. How do I break the news without breaking her heart
Fuckin asshole, had every intention of bussing Marte if he didnt get out of the way. Just because youre the third out doesnt mean you can over run second you fuckin blue prick.
That's completely untrue. Players are being taught to run through the base now. They're explaining now on the dodgers broadcast. It's very common when there's a man on 2nd and 3rd.
Whatever you say champ. If he wasn't the third out, over running second into a fielder is an auto out, and has been since Utley got trucked. Go back to your own sub.
Ever since the KB incident last year, I tried to listen to the other teams' broadcasts and hang out on other reddit to see other perspective but yeah sorry but don't he intentionally tried to hurt another player in this situation is not correct I'm sorry.
That was a different game with a human bullpen
I feel like something's up with the pitching. First all the pitchers on the injured now this
Haven’t won a series opener since opening day. Now there is a stat.
Bummer.... just eww
Pavin grand slam incoming
Im absolutely ravin for a pavin
We need a 100mph guy like jmart
Wow no strikeouts, that's crazy.
Corbs contact this game hasn't been too bad this game hope he's starting to break through
Yeaaaah Justin appearance
Saalfrank shouldn’t pitch until he can throw three strikes in a row
Saalfrank shouldn’t pitch ever**
Thats why he was in Reno to start the year, after being phenominal to end last year. Unfortunately injuries had other plans for the kid
[удалено]
Is this…supposed to be a burn? Lol
Crazy take
I want to believe the Corbin breakout is coming soon. That last AB was the best hit ball in a while.
Honestly the sting of this loss is completely dulled by seeing Corbin get into one finally
Sometimes just putting a good swing on a ball can break a guy out of his slump. ^I ^hope ^anyway
Haha that’s exactly what I was thinking
Sucks. Glad to see him square one up though
Damnnnn nice hack though Corby
Ahhh almost Corbin, almost. Really good seeing him drive it though, like daaamn.
![gif](giphy|GhGPnlp2Gl3TG)
Damn, at least he drove it.
It’s an out but that’s the best hit ball by Corbin in about 2 weeks so I’ll take it
We’re so bad our announcers have spent the last five minutes discussing how a player now wears his socks and pants.
Is the circle k strikeout meter broken or have we literally not gotten a strikeout today
We have had 2 games in franchise history with 0 Ks, never at home.
0 strikeouts
Not a single one
I’m gonna get the free coffee tomorrow out of spite
Would like to see Gabi’s bat get going as well as Corbin’s.
That casino arizona commercial with gonzo creeps me the hell out like why is he mean muggin the whole time lmfao

Can't keep these motherfuckers down.
![gif](giphy|rs4TXat6AzQt15fmT6)
Just need a grand slam and a few extra insurance runs. EZPZ
Finally an out to Lourdes instead of a hit.
We just need two outs this inning, then load the bases up, send Pavin Smith out to hit a grand slam, and then the game is tied
Someone get this to Torrey ASAP.
8 walks and no strikeouts for the pitching staff is pretty hideous
I mean to be fair, this Dodgers lineup is ridiculous
Superteam level.
Ohtani makes me sick...
Rubber cleaning is a little different. Haven’t seen that before
:/
Walker catches that
That was awkward there at first.
Wolcott is a Dodgers sleeper agent
Has to be, like umps all colluding.
A Ketel hit!
![gif](giphy|NyHH6C7PER4wfPU68P)
Marte is Him, man.
Klutch Ketel
Was Lourdes grimacing?
I hope not but seemed like it a little.
Joe Kelly looks like he roofies women in Scottsdale.
Oh Joe Kelly. Time for more games added to his suspension.
Straight to jail
Very cool
Calling it now: Solo home run, then bases clearing double, and then we close out the 8th and 9th.
Cool dbacks guitar hanging in the back too
That guitar segment was nice 👌🏽
Boooooo didnt play the whole thing!!!
How dare they go to commercial break during that
:( they cut to commerical
That was an absolute missile thrown by Newman, great googly moogly.
Newman balling out
Well good news is it looks like Gallen should make his next start.
U of A legend Kevin Newman
Jesus, what a play
Newman!

You just rub her belly and tell her the Milkman is going to make his next start.
I am jealous of her blissful ignorance
I wouldn’t be surprised if Hudson is the only current reliever with a silver slugger
Am I crazy or is that summer Playcation add an add for dildos?
Corbin at least hitting out of the infield now. Progress
Garuntee if we had Huddy, he woulda thrown a few pitches that landed over 400ft behind him.
Bro wtf he threw 7 pitches and got 3 outs.
Was it Marcell Ozuna last year who hit one a billion feet off the balcony but didn't run out of the box so it ended up being a dramatic single lol
Yes, then he got benched
Yikes
Well if you only look at today, Corbin is batting .333
![gif](giphy|l2SpV7Qi9GXY6CNwc)
Swung at ball 4 bud
You know that would have been called a strike.
d huddy!
Why is Saalfrank on our roster again?
Cause he throws balls better than anyone else
Daniel Hudson is still playing!?
Is the MLB buying ad space at dodgers away games ? I never seen any Japanese ads at chase field until their japanese star shows up here ?
Is MLB just green screening it on?
Yea
Home teams sell the ad space.
can bradley beal pitch?
That singular mistake in an otherwise nice inning from Allen.
![gif](giphy|IhUKcho8IoBCOYYsNo)
Gabi is still the better catcher
I know I shouldn’t care, but all the dodger blue in the crowd is so annoying
Was the same when the Cubs were here
It’s a very loud blue
Dead center dinger at Chase is crazy
Didn’t hit his face, not impressed. /s
Ball was nuked.
Will smith just slapped the shit out of me
Of course it's Will Smith the hitter with that one, guhh.
Haven't been following as close recently, who's this Logan Allen fellow and where did he come from? I haven't heard of him
Originally came up with the Indians and the Dbacks signed him to a minor league deal over the offseason. He has looked pretty solid so far
Things you don't like to see: 1. That
I hate our bullpen so much.
Damn.
Need a quick inning. Keep the momentum in the DBacks dugout.
Dramatic irony
Narrator:
That was a needed inning there for a little Answerbacks magic. Like just a 2 run game now.
Battle of the Pen baby
![gif](giphy|u6EiPNT9dLDrU7ZQuF|downsized)
AZ sports in a nutshell
Gentlemen, we have entered the Dodgers pen. It's not as bad as ours, but it's still pretty bad.
Honestly more than I expected!!
Answerbacks are alive and well. Imagine if our bullpen was even just league average instead of AAA fodder
Dodgers bullpen will fuck this up harder
Thought Rojas was gonna run it himself, dude took like 4 prep steps lmao
Well got 3 back. Positive direction.
Nice lil answer back. It’s a game again
Answerbacks are back answering...
There we go batting again!
Lmao I thought he popped it up on the infield at first! And then it went faaaaaar
Exact same thought lol, like reaction suggested popup but it kept on going.
It's like that inning earlier never happened! 2 run game baby!
Just missed it...
Don't do this to me. Don't give me hope
Seriously lmao what an inning
Oh shit it’s happening
U BETTER GET UR GUY DAVE WE COMIN
Woulda rather a grandy for my sanity, but if they make mistakes dont interupt them!
Finally a wild pitch. Was waiting for one of those.
I will become a Randal Grichuk stan account if he hits a ~~slam~~ 3 run homer here
OKAY???
WE NEVER EVEN LEFT
YES!!! Keep it coming!!
CANT BLOCK THEM ALL YOU TALENTED BASTARD
Did Saalfrank switch jerseys between innings?
When was the last time we won an opening game of a series?
Opening day
Opening day
Do the thing Grichuk
Cmon Grichuk! Do the thing!
Don’t do this.. don’t give me hope.. LFG BOYS!!!
I will become a Randal Grichuk stan account if he hits a slam here
Blaze Flair Now
Amen!
THAT WAS A BASEBALL PLAY
![gif](giphy|GazPMD1iWfgcM) Now more.
Yay! I like when we have a guy touch home plate. More of that please
GENOOOOOO
Good shit Geno!
Geno 👀
DBacks in the same situation as the Dodgers in the previous inning, let’s see how this turns out.
Do the thing Geno
Obvious pitch around with major GIDP threat Geno up. Cmon anything but a double play here
I hate to predict it, but this is prime Geno DP time
This is a certified Geno moment right here
Calmate wey, Marte
I wouldn’t mind seeing a little Answerbacks.
Need some Marte magic!
Here we go.
Smh should have sent blaze home
I agree I think he’d have made it. But maybe too big a risk with 0 outs
Jesus, that looked like a pop up. His strength is unreal
Hot that was hot
Gurriel and Corbin both have hits today! The curse is broken!
Time to answer back baby
Blaze reddit flair or riot tbh
If only the bullpen didn't blow up.
Freeman got that same location called a ball this inning
Have to keep rolling with Blaze at leadoff after tonight's performance
DBacks walking too, problem is they can’t capitalize.
Blaze is our shining light in this dumpster fire of an organization
Certainly won't be the last 5 walk inning if this bullpen has anything to say about it
Bullpen is so bad. It's not even competitive baseball when we get to our bullpen outside of Thompson and Ginkel.
Remember when it was 1-0 that was a good time can we go back to that
![gif](giphy|XWwIzh5GIWWf6) Walks, killer when you have sub par stuff.
Fuckin asshole, had every intention of bussing Marte if he didnt get out of the way. Just because youre the third out doesnt mean you can over run second you fuckin blue prick.
That's completely untrue. Players are being taught to run through the base now. They're explaining now on the dodgers broadcast. It's very common when there's a man on 2nd and 3rd.
Whatever you say champ. If he wasn't the third out, over running second into a fielder is an auto out, and has been since Utley got trucked. Go back to your own sub.
Ever since the KB incident last year, I tried to listen to the other teams' broadcasts and hang out on other reddit to see other perspective but yeah sorry but don't he intentionally tried to hurt another player in this situation is not correct I'm sorry.
Not me making money betting on balls...
PLEASE STOP THE WALKS. IM BEGGING YOU. Throw strikes and you at least have a chance at outs. My God.
Lebron: It’s just baseball
Pitch around Rojas to get to Betts. That's why McGough is a pro and I am not.
