As the Arizona Diamondbacks prepare to face the Pittsburgh Pirates this weekend, the club made a pair of key roster moves that further signal their shift toward selling at the upcoming trade deadline. Right-hander Trevor Richards has been designated for assignment, while left-hander Brandyn Garcia has been recalled from Triple-A Reno.

The Arizona Diamondbacks will try to make it two straight against the Pirates on July 26 in the second game of their series in Pittsburgh.

Garcia is a 25-year-old left-hand relief pitcher the Diamondbacks just acquired from the Seattle Mariners as part of a trade that sent Josh Naylor to Seattle. Arizona also acquired right-hand starter Ashton Izzi in the deal, but he is in High-A Hillsboro to start his Diamondbacks career.

NYC Council Minority Leader Joann Ariola’s nephew Joe was selected by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the Major League Baseball Draft last week — and the longtime Mets fan is already switching her allegiances.

The Arizona Diamondbacks will be playing the Athletics at their temporary home, a minor league ballpark in Sacramento, to kick off August. Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll will return to the site of his MLB call-up and the club will be in for a unique overall experience.
