#Dbacks will follow Patrick Corbin with Robbie Ray. No announcement past that.

This will be Patrick Corbin’s 1st career Opening Day start. He was scheduled to start the opener in 2014 in Australia but injured his elbow in final spring outing and had to undergo Tommy John surgery.

“I’m just excited and honored. I feel ready and well-prepared. Just really, really excited to get going.”

He deserves it.

I’m not sure it has anything to do with performance.
