Here’s Why D-backs Pitching Was SO BAD In 2024

Entering the season, the Diamondbacks had the makings of one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. That’s not how things worked out. In this episode, we try to make sense of what went wrong, and revisit the question of whether firing Brent Strom was the right move. We also look back on Sunday night’s raucous Padres-Dodgers game, including the chippy interactions between Jack Flaherty and Manny Machado. We finish by answering some mailbag questions and previewing the Arizona Fall League. Join Jesse, Damon and Archie Bradley on the PHNX D-backs show!
