The Diamondbacks will start the season without catcher/first baseman Adrian Del Castillo due to a left calf injury, likely placing him on the injured list. With limited depth, Pavin Smith and Carlos Santana are set to platoon at first base, while outfielder Corbin Carroll may also miss time after surgery. The pitching rotation features Merrill Kelly and Zac Gallen, with a competition for remaining spots among Eduardo Rodriguez, Brandon Pfaadt, and Michael Soroka. Arizona is exploring trades for additional utility players to strengthen their bench.
