The last game in the series between Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago Cubs will be played this Sunday afternoon, a game that will carry a lot of obligations for the D’Backs after having a tough beginning of the season. Despite conceding 15 runs in the first 3 games against the Cubs, the season is still very young, and they’re expected to become a better team after not reaching the playoffs during the prior season.
For this game, the most probable pitcher for Arizona is Ed Rodriguez, who joined the D’Backs as a free agent in December 2023, but that only had activity in 50 innings during the 2024 season, in which he held a 3W-4L record. Most of that inactivity was explained by a left shoulder strain, so he’s just expected to become better in the current season, where he’s expected to show a very related performance to the ones he had in Detroit and Boston.
Meanwhile, Chicago Cubs will most likely have Matthew Boyd as the opener pitcher, being worth reminding that he was recently signed as a free agent last December. In this matter, he’s expected to find some regularity, as the last time he played more than 80 innings was in the 2019 season with Detroit Tigers. On the batting side, it must be noted that Tcucker and Turner are the only players in the Cubs’ lineup that have already connected a HR against Rodriguez.
