As we gear up for the 2025 Fantasy Baseball season, the Arizona Diamondbacks' starting rotation is generating a lot of buzz, particularly with the likes of Corbin Burnes and Zac Gallen leading the charge. With Burnes showing signs of a resurgence thanks to an improved cutter and Gallen's curveball still being a dominant force, the question arises: can this rotation become one of the most formidable in the league?
Let’s dive into some bold predictions. I believe Burnes could reclaim his status as a top-tier SP, potentially racking up over 200 strikeouts with a sub-3.50 ERA. Meanwhile, Gallen, despite his inconsistencies, might just surprise us with a bounce-back year, flirting with 170 strikeouts if he can find more consistency with his fastball and slider.
But what about the other arms in the rotation? Merrill Kelly has been a reliable option, but can he maintain his effectiveness against left-handed hitters? And then there's Eduardo Rodriguez—do we trust him to turn things around after a rocky 2024?
I want to hear your thoughts! Do you think Burnes can truly return to elite status, or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment? How do you see Gallen's season playing out? And what about the rest of the rotation—who do you think will emerge as a sleeper pick?
Let’s get the conversation rolling!
