After Shelby Miller was placed on the injured list with a right forearm strain before Monday’s game, Ginkel was given the first save chance with Miller unavailable. It was far from picturesque as he threw just 5-of-11 pitches for strikes while walking a batter and striking out none, but the job was done. Ginkel will likely see the save chances for now, but he assuredly won’t have a long leash if he isn’t up to the task.

Arizona fans, and fantasy managers, can breathe a little easier after Marte was a late scratch from Monday’s series opener for precautionary reasons due to right groin tightness. The 31-year-old All-Star second baseman is back at the keystone and batting second on Tuesday night at Petco Park.

Getting to play your home games in Arizona and being faster than the overwhelming majority of players gives you a good chance to pile up the triples, and Carroll has done just that with 10 already before the All-Star break. The 24-year-old also doubled while improving his season slash to .250/.332/.563. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise if Carroll approached 20-plus three-baggers someday. It could even be 2025.

Gallen was outstanding, and it was nice to see him follow up his strong seven-inning, 10-strikeout effort against the Giants on Tuesday with another impressive effort. He now has an ERA of 0.47 in July, and while it’s over only two starts, it’s a marked improvement from the 6.23 mark he forged in June. Gallen was too talented to struggle for this long, and there’s a good chance the positive regression continues against the Angels on Saturday.
