Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Secures fifth win
Pfaadt (5-1) allowed three runs (two earned) on nine hits and a walk over six-plus innings Sunday, striking out six and earning a win against Atlanta.
Pfaadt delivered four shutout frames before Atlanta finally broke through with a run in the fifth inning. They put two more runs on Pfaadt's line in the seventh, including one after he was removed from the game. He tossed 65 of 100 pitches for strikes and forced 13 whiffs, including nine with the sweeper. Pfaadt has won five consecutive starts and dropped his season ERA to 2.78 to go along with a 29:6 K:BB.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Win streak at four
Pfaadt (4-1) picked up the win Tuesday in a 5-1 victory over the Rays, allowing one run on four hits over six innings. He struck out five without walking a batter.
The 26-year-old right-hander won his fourth straight outing and delivered his third quality start in five trips to the mound, with only an RBI single by Jake Mangum in the second inning putting a blemish on his night. Pfaadt will take a 2.73 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB through 29.2 innings into his next start, which is scheduled to come at home this weekend against Atlanta.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Another strong outing
Pfaadt (3-1) earned the win against the Marlins on Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out six across 5.2 innings.
Pfaadt's only blemish of Wednesday's game came in the fourth inning, when he gave up a 396-foot solo home run to Matt Mervis. Pfaadt was one out shy from logging a second consecutive quality start and has begun the year with a 3.04 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB across 23.2 innings. He'll look to earn a fourth straight win his next time out, which is tentatively slated for next week at home against Tampa Bay.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Blanks Baltimore in win
Pfaadt (2-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Orioles, allowing four hits and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out three.
It was an impressive outing from Pfaadt, who's now won back-to-back starts while lowering his ERA to 3.50 through his first 18 innings. While the 26-year-old Pfaadt has yet to log more than five strikeouts in a start this year, he's posted an encouraging 2.1 percent walk rate. Pfaadt's currently lined up to face the Marlins on the road next week in his next outing.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Shaky in first win Friday
Pfaadt (1-1) picked up the win after allowing four runs on six hits and no walks in six innings Friday against Washington. He struck out four.
The right-hander was plagued by the long ball Friday, giving up a solo homer to CJ Abrams and a two-run shot to Luis Garcia in the opening frame. Pfaadt settled in to throw four scoreless innings thereafter, but Nathaniel Lowe took him deep for a solo blast in the sixth frame. Pfaadt has handed out just one free pass to go with nine strikeouts over his first 12 innings of the year, but he'll carry a 5.25 ERA into his next scheduled start in the middle of next week at home against Baltimore.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Takes loss despite quality start
Pfaadt (0-1) took the loss against the Cubs on Saturday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out five batters over six innings.
Pfaadt held Chicago scoreless for three frames before giving up a run in the fourth inning. The Cubs tagged him for two more runs on a Kyle Tucker homer in the fifth, and Arizona was never able to catch up. Pfaadt was pretty efficient in completing six frames on 78 pitches, and he gave his fantasy managers a boost with a quality start despite the loss. His second start of the campaign is expected to come against Washington next week.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Inks five-year extension
Pfaadt signed a five-year, $45 million contract extension with the Diamondbacks on Friday that includes a club option for 2031 and a mutual option for 2032, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.
Pfaadt's extension won't kick in until 2026, but it will buy out all three of his arbitration years and possibly his first three years of free agency if all options are exercised. The 26-year-old finished last season with a 4.71 ERA and 1.24 WHIP alongside a 185:42 K:BB in 181.2 innings (32 starts); however, his 3.60 FIP is much more indicative of how well he performed on the mound. His first start of the new year is slated to come Saturday versus the Cubs, against whom he allowed two earned runs over 14 innings with a 13:1 K:BB in two appearances last season.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Named to rotation
Pfaadt will begin the season in the Diamondbacks' rotation and is scheduled to start Saturday against the Cubs, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
The right-hander will slot in for Arizona's third game of the season after producing a 3.18 ERA over 11.1 innings during spring training. Pfaadt had a 4.71 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 185:42 K:BB in 32 starts for the Diamondbacks last season, though a 3.60 FIP provides a more encouraging outlook on his performance.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Strong start Sunday
Pfaadt allowed two hits and struck out seven over five scoreless innings in Sunday's spring start against the Padres.
Pfaadt was impressive in his fourth Cactus League start against a legit regular season San Diego batting order. After giving up a leadoff single in the first, Pfaadt set down the next 12 batters in order before a harmless leadoff single in the fifth -- the runner was eliminated on a double play. The right-hander threw 57 pitches (43 strikes) and left a good impression on manager Torey Lovullo, who has yet to settle on a No. 5 starter. The manager is mulling Pfaadt, Ryne Nelson and Jordan Montgomery for the final rotation spot.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Rebounds Tuesday
Pfaadt allowed one run on three hits and one walk while striking out two over three innings in Tuesday's spring game against the Royals.
Pfaadt didn't start the game and came on to pitch innings five through seven after Merrill Kelly and Justin Martinez got the Diamondbacks through the first four frames. This was Pfaadt's third Cactus League outing and decidedly better than his previous appearance when he was chased after 1.1 innings. Despite working out of the bullpen Tuesday, Pfaadt remains in the mix for the final spot in the rotation, along with Ryne Nelson and Jordan Montgomery.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Rough second outing
Pfaadt was unable to get out of the second inning in his second spring start Wednesday, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports. He allowed three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out two over 1.1 innings.
Pfaadt elevated his pitch count to 46, even if the results weren't pretty. The right-hander's outing was the first in a line of starters battling for the Diamondbacks' final rotation spot -- Ryne Nelson will pitch Thursday, and Jordan Montgomery (finger) is scheduled for his spring debut Friday. If Pfaadt had a lock on a rotation spot, then Wednesday's performance could be chalked up to a pitcher just getting his work in, but instead his numbers will get measured against his competition.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Sharp in spring debut
Pfaadt allowed one hit and struck out two over two scoreless innings in Thursday's spring start against the Reds.
Pfaadt cruised in his Cactus League opener, setting the side down in the order in the first inning, including an inning-ending swinging strikeout of Elly De La Cruz. The right-hander then worked around a two-out double in the second by punching out Spencer Steer to complete his day. Manager Torey Lovullo faces a tough decision regarding his five-man rotation. The top four are locked in with Corbin Burnes, Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly and Eduardo Rodriguez. That leaves Pfaadt battling Ryne Nelson and Jordan Montgomery for the final spot. Both Pfaadt and Nelson still have minor-league options, but Montgomery could shift to the bullpen.
