Gallen expects to be available out of the bullpen Sunday against the Padres, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports. He did not throw his usual between-start bullpen session over the weekend in case he was needed on the final day of the regular season. Arizona gets into the postseason with a win Sunday and losses by the Mets and Atlanta, so Gallen could end up appearing and qualifying for a win or save in relief of Brandon Pfaadt.

Gallen (14-6) picked up the win over the Giants on Wednesday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over six innings while striking out 11. The only run charged to Gallen on the night came across in the second inning after he walked the leadoff man to open the frame before then surrendering an RBI double to Tyler Fitzgerald. The right-hander responded by retiring 14 of the next 15 batters he faced while also posting a season-high 11 strikeouts in the contest. Gallen generated 16 whiffs on the night and it marked the third time this season in which he's recorded double-digit strikeouts. He's now won his last five decisions (spanning seven starts) and carries a 2.67 ERA in September to go along with a 38:11 K:BB. On the downside, Gallen has also issued multiple free passes in nine of his last 10 outings.

Gallen (13-6) picked up the win Friday, giving up four runs on seven hits -- including three home runs -- and a walk over five innings in a 7-4 victory over the Brewers. He struck out five. The righty blanked Milwaukee for four innings before falling apart in the fifth, blowing a 4-0 lead by serving up long balls to Joey Ortiz, William Contreras and Garrett Mitchell. Arizona struck back for three more runs in the top of the sixth, however, allowing Gallen to escape with the win. It marks Gallen's first time allowing multiple homers since April 26, and he's been both lucky and good down the stretch as the Diamondbacks push for a playoff spot, going 4-0 over his last six outings with a 3.38 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 43:15 K:BB through 32 innings. He lines up to make his final start of the regular season at home next week against the Giants.

Gallen (12-6) earned the win over the Rangers on Tuesday, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out seven over five shutout innings. Gallen has kept a scoreless stat line in three of his last four outings, with the exception being a five-run outing against the Dodgers. Over that four-start span, Gallen has a 31:12 K:BB across 22 innings. The right-hander is now at a 3.55 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 133:49 K:BB through 132 innings over 25 starts this season. He'll look to keep things on track in his next start, which is projected to be at Colorado.

Gallen allowed five runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings in a no-decision versus the Dodgers on Friday. Gallen once again followed a strong start -- a six-inning scoreless outing versus the Red Sox last Saturday -- with a dud, though the Dodgers are a tough opponent for anyone. Over eight starts since the All-Star break, Gallen has allowed 19 runs across 44.1 innings, with 17 of those runs coming in just four of the starts. The right-hander is at a 3.87 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 118:43 K:BB through 121 innings over 23 starts this year. He's never walked 50 batters in a season, but it appears inevitable he will this year as he's issued multiple walks in seven of his last eight starts. Gallen is projected to make his next start at San Francisco.
