The latest MLB Immaculate Grid puzzle rolled out with fresh questions to test your major league knowledge. One of the questions requires fans to answer the Diamondbacks pitchers with 3000+ career strikeouts.
Achieving this feat is among the toughest milestones in the MLB. Because only 19 pitchers in the league have managed to pin their names on the list, we can imagine how great it is to be a pitcher with 3000+ strikeouts in their career. This achievement is pretty tough, as pitchers have to deal with a lot of injuries that can spoil a full season.
Just three pitchers who played for the Arizona Diamondbacks have registered their names in the record books with 3000+ career strikeouts.

The latest player who etched his name on the list is Texas Rangers flamethrower Max Scherzer. The veteran pitcher made his debut with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2008 against the Houston Astros. He played two seasons with the club and was traded to the Detroit Tigers in 2010.
In 2013, Scherzer won his first Cy Young Award as a Tigers pitcher, followed by his All-Star selection in the same year. He crossed the 1,000 career strikeout mark in 2013. Scherzer won his consecutive second and third Cy Young awards in 2016 and 2017. Following the exceptional run, he went on to achieve 300+ strikeouts in the 2018 season.
