Who Will Be the D-backs Fifth Starter? Michael Soroka Makes his Intentions CLEAR

The Diamondbacks stunned everyone by bringing back Zac Gallen, suddenly giving the Snakes SIX legitimate starting pitchers heading into Spring Training. So who’s the odd man out? If you ask Michael Soroka, it won’t be him. We break down Soroka’s comments about staying in the rotation, why internal competition could elevate this entire staff, and what it means for the D-backs’ fifth starter battle. Plus, D-backs pregame and postgame host Steve Zinsmeister joins the show to share his thoughts on Arizona’s offseason moves, the biggest storyline heading into 2026, and his pick for the team’s most surprising player this season. We also have the latest updates from camp and what the Major League Baseball Players Association voting on a new interim executive director means for the upcoming CBA negotiations.
