FILE - Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen throws against the Houston Astros during the first inning of a baseball game in Houston, in this Friday, Sept. 18, 2020, file photo. If the Arizona Diamondbacks want to win a lot of games this season they probably need right-hander Zac Gallen to throw a lot of quality innings. If the franchise wants to be good for the next several years, it's also imperative that the 25-year-old — who finished ninth in the NL Cy Young voting last season — stays healthy. (AP Photo/David J.
