Two days after attempting to trade for Casey Mize, the Diamondbacks faced him — and knocked him out in the 4th inning in a blowout win over the Padres. Tim Tawa, Ryan Waldschmidt and Tyler Locklear led the way as the D-backs scored 8 runs on 9 hits against the veteran right-hander.
Meanwhile, Mitch Bratt turned in by far the best start of his career, with 7 scoreless, one-hit innings and 9 strikeouts. With Michael Soroka nearly back from the injured list, is Bratt's rotation spot officially safe?
Finally, we discuss some other news and notes, including the NL wild card picture, the D-backs moving Lars Nootbaar to the lead-off spot and more. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory, the Arizona Diamondbacks show in the Foul Territory network.
