Arizona Diamondbacks insider Jack Sommers believes that the team's biggest roster hole isn't a splashy name. Sommers points to the Diamondbacks' struggles against right-handed pitching, suggesting a need for a reliable left-handed bat.
While the Arizona Diamondbacks have been busy signing free-agent pitchers, they just let one go who was once a huge prospect.
After a few months away from the Diamondbacks, Merrill Kelly will return to the team in 2026. Kelly will reportedly rejoin the team on a two-year deal after a strong run in Arizona and an uneven one with the Texas Rangers.
In the first round of the Triple-A phase, the Athletics ended up selecting Abel Mercedes from the Houston Astros. In the second round of the Triple-A phase, the A's added a similar pitcher in Darlin Pinales, a 23-year-old right-hander that had been in the Arizona Diamondbacks system.
