Greg Stanton is a stronger general election candidate for the 2024 AZ US Senate Election.

Stanton represents a swing US House District that has rural voters unlike Ruben Gallego’s US House District.
AZ is a tilt Republican state. Mark Kelly and Katie Hobbs won because their Republican opponents Blake Masters and Kari Lake are too extreme. Mark Kelly is not a progressive nor he is a DINO like Kyrsten Sinema.

instead of the more progressive Gallego and therefore will fair better in AZ?

Interesting, but aren't the most votes in the two big counties, Maricopa and Pima, which are blue?
