According to a report from ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan, the D-Backs have agreed on a deal to send outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Kansas City Royals. Right-handed reliever Andrew Hoffman is headed to Arizona in return, according to MLB insider Mark Feinsand.

Andrew Heaney and five relievers combined on a four-hitter, Oneil Cruz hit his team-leading 17th home run and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-0 on Saturday night.

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.
