<h3>Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary&#8230;</h3>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8221;I think the best part about him is he learns from days like today and keeps moving forward,&#8221; Lovullo said.  &#8220;The easy answer would be to say yes, but I don&#8217;t think so,&#8221; Gallen said.  Afterward, D-backs manager Torey Lovullo said that it&#8217;s been hard for Gallen to find his consistency this year given that he has had two stints on the injured list.  The D-backs&#8217; right-hander is his own toughest critic, and it is what has made him so good at such a young age, but it&#8217;s also what makes games like Friday afternoon&#8217;s 8-3 loss to the Cubs hard for him to take.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
