Furthermore, the D-backs have placed several players on the injured list. Outfielder Randal Grichuk is undergoing recovery from ankle surgery, while Eduardo Rodriguez and Paul Sewald have been placed on the 15-day IL.
The Diamondbacks’ 2024 campaign will commence tonight against the Colorado Rockies at 7:10 PM, with Zac Gallen slated to take the mound.
