Patrick Corbin pitched three-hit ball for six innings and combined with three relievers on a shutout of the Dodgers on Friday. Brad Ziegler, David Hernandez and J.J. Putz finished the 3-0 game. Corbin, who beat out Randall Delgado and Tyler Skaggs for a rotation spot this spring, is 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA. His long-term upside is pretty limited, but NL-only leaguers should enjoy the ride.

Patrick Corbin held the Brewers to two earned runs in six innings Saturday night in a 9-2 Diamondbacks win. Corbin gave up eight hits and issued one walk, but he operated fairly smoothly in situations that required damage control. The 23-year-old left-hander will face the Dodgers next. He's not a great fantasy option.

Patrick Corbin has earned the final spot in the Diamondbacks' starting rotation. Corbin posted a 4.54 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 86/25 K/BB ratio in 107 innings last season for the Snakes. The 23-year-old is doubtful to hold mixed league fantasy value.

Patrick Corbin was very impressive in his latest audition for a rotation spot, tossing six shutout innings against the Reds on Friday. Corbin limited the Reds to two hits and two walks while fanning seven. He'll finish the spring with an impressive 2.81 ERA and 26/9 K/BB ratio in 25 2/3 innings. Randall Delgado is still in the mix for the final spot in the rotation, but Corbin has set the bar pretty high.

Patrick Corbin delivered a solid performance in Friday's victory over the Indians, allowing two runs on three hits over five innings. Corbin punched out four while issuing three free passes on the night. All of the damage against him came on a two-run single by Michael Brantley in the third inning. He's likely to open the season as the fifth starter in the Diamondbacks rotation, and has looked good with a 19/7 K/BB ratio over 19 2/3 innings this spring.

Patrick Corbin was knocked around for four runs on three hits and a walk over one inning in Wednesday's loss to the Royals. The left-hander issued a free pass to start off the inning, and then two singles preceded an Alex Gordon grand slam. Corbin was looking like the favorite for the Diamondbacks' fifth starter spot after being lights-out in his first two spring appearances, but this showing might knock him back to among the pack.

Patrick Corbin spun three scoreless frames in Friday's 6-2 win over the Cubs. Corbin allowed three hits while walking one and fanning four. The 24-year-old southpaw now has eight strikeouts and two walks over five scoreless innings of work this spring. Randall Delgado and Tyler Skaggs haven't been overly impressive so far, so Corbin could be emerging as the early favorite for the fifth spot in Arizona's starting rotation.

Patrick Corbin was fantastic in a no-decision against the Rockies on Tuesday, allowing just one run on six hits over seven frames. Corbin punched out six and walked one. The only real blemish against him came when Andrew Brown scored on a double play ball in the second inning. The Arizona left-hander finishes the 2012 season with a 6-8 record, 4.46 ERA and 86/25 K/BB ratio over 107 innings of work.

Patrick Corbin was pounded for six runs in three innings by the Giants in Thursday's loss. But at least he was efficient: Corbin threw just 36 pitches in his three innings of work. Corbin is now 6-8 with a 4.77 ERA. He's due to make one more start, but it's possible the Diamondbacks have seen enough.
