• Zac Gallen, the Arizona Diamondbacks' starting pitcher, is expected to make his return to the mound on Saturday against the Colorado Rockies. Gallen has been sidelined since early April due to a fractured left forearm, an injury he sustained while batting during a game. His return to the rotation is a significant boost for the Diamondbacks, as Gallen has been one of their most consistent and effective pitchers over the past two seasons.

• Prior to his injury, Gallen had made two starts this season, posting a 2.70 ERA with 12 strikeouts in 10 innings. He was a bright spot in the Diamondbacks' starting rotation, which has struggled overall this year. Gallen's return will provide the team with a reliable and talented arm as they look to turn their season around.

• The Diamondbacks are currently 15-22 on the season and sit in last place in the NL West. Gallen's presence in the rotation should help stabilize the pitching staff and give the team a better chance of climbing back into contention. His ability to eat up innings and limit opposing offenses will be crucial as the Diamondbacks look to improve their performance in the coming weeks.
