Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen (cramps) has been cleared to start on Saturday.

While the 29-year-old has had some struggles this summer, he currently sits with a 3.69 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and a 35:99 BB:K ratio across 105 innings of work. Under the hood, Gallen boasts an above-average 6.2% barrel rate and 46.9% ground-ball rate.
