The Arizona Diamondbacks are 17-18 this season through May 6th, and very well could wind up in a postseason spot this year. However, in a tough NL West, it wouldn't be a surprise if they had a rough couple of months and fell out of the competition for a postseason spot and wound up as sellers. If they do, The Athletic's Jim Bowden linked the D-Backs to a trade with Zac Gallen, their 4.
45 ERA All-Star veteran. "However, Gallen has been a reliable workhorse throughout his career, even when he hasn't been at his most effective," Bowden writes. "Since he'll be a free agent again at the end of this year, teams are going to be scouting him closely ahead of the trade deadline.
