• Struggling Starters and an Aging Catcher-May 7, 2026
Zac Gallen-Diamondbacks-SP Zac Gallen went 6.0 IP and gave up 4 ER on 6 H, 2 BB, and 5 K's against the Pirates. Gallen has struggled to start 2026, posting a 4.70 ERA and 1.49 WHIP across 38.1 IP. This is coming off his worst season as a professional (4.83 ERA and 1.26 WHIP). The biggest concern is the sharp drop in strikeouts (14% K) paired with a mediocre 7% K-BB%. His 4.70 SIERA suggests the ...2026
