El Caiman is already finding a way to stand out amongst major #Dbacks prospects!
Mitch Bratt, Dylan Ray, and Brandon Pfaadt would be available to start Wednesday @ STL.
Each are working up pitch counts, all at about the same levels. Bratt has the most upside, but Pfaadt has the most experience.
Interesting choice coming for the #Dbacks!
Great return outing by Dylan Ray:
4 IP | 4 H | 1 R | 2 BB | 4 K
Batters had a .285 xwOBA against him all night, showing how well he did at limiting hard contact!

@bamaprobackup ….that all important W. D Ray’s grandfather passed last August. He would always watch the whole game and made sure we knew he got the W….
#Dbacks MiLB Notes (@Aces, 3/28/26):
- Dylan Ray has a fantastic outing, throwing 5 innings of 1-run ball
- AJ Vukovich records the first Reno homer, finished 3/5 with a double as well!
- Jack Hurley went 3/4 w/ 2 doubles, hit a ball 112.6 mph!
WHAT AN OUTING FOR DYLAN RAY!
5 IP | 6 H | 1 R | 1 BB | 3 K
Ray was able to mix his pitches well and avoid too many issues on the bases, allowing for a nice start to begin his 2026 season!
