12/10/23 2023 Arizona Diamondbacks Reviews: #32, Dominic Canzone. Canzone was picked in the 8th round of the 2019 draft, and spent most of 2022 in Reno, where he posted an .838 OPS over 88 games. Michael ranked him as our #17 prospect at the end of last season, but noted Canzone “has the misfortune of being a positionally-limited outfielder with a left-handed bat, with more athletic outfielders such as Alek Thomas, Corbin Carroll, Jake McCarthy, and Daulton Varsho blocking him.”

11/03/23 Poor Alek Thomas. A heart-rending misplayed ball in the outfield by Alek Thomas of the Diamondbacks was the stuff of Rangers history, as it sparked the rally that led to their first-ever championship, but it is surely going to be grist for Thomas's nightmares. Camera operators repeatedly zoomed in on Thomas in the dugout to convey his state of mind to the baseball world. Thomas's error alone didn't cost the Diamondbacks the game or the Series. Online reactions like “YIKES ALEK THOMAS” didn't provide a lot of nuance but it's clear this will be hard for him to ever live down.
