Arizona Diamondbacks' Tommy Henry pitched a seven-inning shutout against the Colorado Rockies, striking out seven batters and allowing only two hits and two walks.

The lefty's longest scoreless outing of his 16-start tenure concluded a productive May for him, with a 2.87 ERA in five starts. The D-backs are now 10 games over .500 for the first time since 2018.

"Diamondbacks' Ryne Nelson and Dominic Fletcher shine in win over Phillies"

Ryne Nelson's strong outing in the Arizona Diamondbacks' win over the Philadelphia Phillies has given the team a tough decision to make regarding their young arms. With Zach Davies returning from injury, the team must decide who to replace in the rotation between Nelson, Tommy Henry, and Brandon Pfaadt. All three have had recent solid outings, making the decision even more difficult. Nelson seems like a safe bet to stick, while Pfaadt is the team's top pitching prospect and Henry is the lefty. The D-backs' offense struggled but managed to score the winning run in the eighth inning.

Diamondbacks Overcome Royals in Unconventional Win.

The Arizona Diamondbacks rallied from an early deficit to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-4, with pinch-hitter Nick Ahmed hitting the go-ahead and eventual game-winning run in the bottom of the eighth. D-backs lefty Andrew Chafin also made a top-10 play in the ninth inning to secure the win. Left-handed pitcher Tommy Henry had a bumpy first start of his 2023 season, allowing three runs on four hits and four walks to one strikeout across 73 pitches. The Diamondbacks were able to garner eight walks off Royals pitching, which is a big improvement considering where Arizona ranks in that department.

Diamondbacks cut ties with Madison Bumgarner in win-now move.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have designated Madison Bumgarner for assignment after a poor start to the season, allowing five or more runs in three of his four starts. The move was made to show urgency and competitiveness, according to GM Mike Hazen. The D-backs will turn to younger options in the rotation, starting with Tommy Henry, and may consider adding outside talent to complement their young corps. Bumgarner's chase rate was at a career-low 16.6%, walk rate way up at 16.7% and velocity below 90 mph per fastball.

Diamondbacks Make Bold Move by Parting Ways with Madison Bumgarner.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have designated veteran pitcher Madison Bumgarner for assignment, with $34 million still left on his contract, after he struggled in his four starts this season. The D-backs, who lead the NL West, believe their best chance to make a postseason run is by having him off the roster. The decision shows the team's sense of urgency to win now and is one of the worst in D-backs history. Left-hander Tommy Henry will replace Bumgarner in the rotation. The trade deadline will be another opportunity for the team to make moves.

The uncertain future of Madison Bumgarner in the MLB.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have designated pitcher Madison Bumgarner for assignment after a disappointing start to the season, ending his four-year run with the team. Bumgarner had an 0-3 record with a 10.26 ERA in just four starts this season. The move was well-received by many, including general manager Mike Hazen, as it opens up a hole in the rotation that is expected to be filled by Tommy Henry. However, the team will have to pay Bumgarner's hefty $34 million contract.

Diamondbacks cut ties with struggling pitcher Madison Bumgarner.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have designated left-hander Madison Bumgarner for assignment, likely ending his time with the team despite being owed over $34 million through next season. Bumgarner had a 10.26 ERA in four starts this season and a 7.12 ERA in his last 10 starts of 2020. Left-hander Tommy Henry is expected to start in place of Bumgarner on Monday. Bumgarner helped the San Francisco Giants win three World Series titles but his five-year, $85 million contract with the Diamondbacks will go down as one of the worst in franchise history.
