Baseball agent Scott Boras praised pitcher Zac Gallen, suggesting teams would quart him, playing on the word courting. Gallen faces a decision by November eighteenth on the Diamondbacks one-year, twenty-two million dollar qualifying offer. Most expect him to decline, leaving the Diamondbacks with rotation holes. The team may cut payroll, limiting free-agent market options. Pitcher Merrill Kelly, traded in July, is also uncertain to return, as he seeks a market-value deal potentially pricing him out of Arizona. Gallens situation is intriguing, as he finished strong and could accept the qualifying offer or secure a contract ranging from forty-two million to eighty million dollars over two to four years.
