With less than 24 hours to go before the trade deadline, the Diamondbacks have not made a move. Should we be concerned? We discuss several players that the D-backs have been linked to, including Clay Holmes and Casey Mize. Can they still land a left-handed bat with Luis Garcia Jr. now off the market?

We also discuss our takeaways from the Diamondbacks' series win over the Cleveland Guardians. Was it actually wrong for Tim Tawa to bunt against Gavin Williams? What did we learn about Kohl Drake and Mitch Bratt?

Finally, we break down the Dodgers unsurprising acquisition of Tarik Skubal. Is baseball as broken as it looks? Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory, the Arizona Diamondbacks podcast in the Foul Territory network.

D-backs Trade Deadline Countdown: Will Hazen Actually Make a Move?

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/1709956b-ed4e-4bea-bdf6-b49b00352843/transcript

Well, that was anticlimactic. The Diamondbacks traded three players to the St. Louis Cardinals for outfielder Lars Nootbaar on Monday but were unable to push any other moves across the finish line. Why did general manager Mike Hazen fall short in his pursuit for a starting pitcher?

Plus, what is there to like about Nootbaar, and are we sure the D-backs wouldn't have been better off with Nathaniel Lowe? We also dive in to the plethora of moves made by the San Diego Padres, Milwaukee Brewers and other wild card contenders. Do the D-backs still have hope in the wild card race?

D-backs Get Lars Nootbaar, Fail to Land Starter As Rivals Load Up at Trade Deadline

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/eb4d633c-370a-4452-93fc-b49c00118f68/transcript

With the backdrop of a heavily taxed Diamondbacks bullpen, Eduardo Rodriguez delivered perhaps his best start of the season and helped the D-backs win a huge series over the Pittsburgh Pirates. How does E-Rod keep doing this? We also discuss Gabriel Moreno's big swing that gave the D-backs their lead.

Meanwhile, Paul Sewald is officially no longer the Diamondbacks closer after another clunker on Tuesday in which he allowed three runs and blew the save. What is the plan for the closing role moving forward?

We finish with some injury updates and the latest trade deadline buzz with the deadline just five days away. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory, the Arizona Diamondbacks podcast in the Foul Territory network.
