Injury Nightmare CONTINUES for Diamondbacks After Two More Pitchers Suffer Set Backs

The injury hits just won’t stop for the Arizona Diamondbacks. After what already feels like a brutal 12-month stretch health-wise, the D-backs were dealt two more scares at camp. Opening Day starter Merrill Kelly was scratched from live batting practice on Saturday with lower back tightness, raising immediate questions about his availability. Meanwhile, reliever Ryan Thompson took a scary comebacker off the bat of teammate Kristian Robinson during the same session. We’ve got the latest updates on both pitchers, what the team is saying about their timelines, and whether either arm is in danger of missing time.

Plus, we break down MLB’s projected Opening Day lineup for Arizona and debate whether they’re onto something… or completely off base. And of course, we’re answering all of your Spring Training Mailbag Monday questions to round it out.
