The Arizona Diamondbacks finished 86-76, winning the NL West but missing the playoffs after a 9-4 loss to the Padres. Manager Torey Lovullo, the winningest in franchise history, retains his job. Catcher Gabriel Moreno claims his first batting title alongside Houston's Yordan Alvarez.

This episode covers the impact of robot umpires, which overturned 54% of challenges, and Jacob Misiorowski's historic ERA and strikeout season. We analyze the D-backs' roster, including Corbin Burnes, Zac Gallen, and Corbin Carroll, and discuss needed bullpen reinforcements for 2027.

Key topics include Torey Lovullo's future, Gabriel Moreno's offensive dominance, and the competitive landscape of the NL West. We also predict Blake Walston will secure the fifth starter role and outline the path to playoff contention.
