MLB analyst examines Diamondbacks' NL West contention with Corbin Burnes, Zac Gallen 1-2 punch
The Arizona Diamondbacks and starting ace Corbin Burnes agreed a six-year, $210 million contract, sending the NL West into shivers. The Diamondbacks missed out on the postseason after going to the World Series in 2023. To keep up with the likes of LA Dodgers, San Francisco Giants and the San Diego Padres, the club is signing deals this offseason.
Burnes will join the rotation including Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly, Eduardo Rodriguez, Brandon Pfaadt, Ryne Nelson and Jordan Montgomery. The rotation was severely impacted due to injuries, but with all of them returning, the Dbacks will be a team to watch out for.
MLB analyst Dani Wexelman examined the Dbacks' latest signing and their 1-2 punch of Gallen and Burnes.
"Picking up Corbin Burns changes the game for them in so many different ways. He is their number one. He is their ace, but he’s paired with another ace in Zac Gallen," Wexelman said on MLB Network duo.
