Diamondbacks Outright Jake Woodford
The Diamondbacks sent right-hander outright to Triple-A Reno, according to the MLB.com . He cleared waivers after being designated for a signment over the weekend. Woodford joined the Snakes on a major league contract in the beginning of July. Hed been pitching in Triple-A with the Cubs when he triggered an out clause in that minor league deal. He took the ball 22 times and logged 36 1/3 innings of 6.44 ERA ball. It was his third consecutive season allowing more than six earned runs per nine innings. Woodford neverthele s found himself in a handful of high-leverage situations in an Arizona bullpen that was hit hard by injuries. He recorded his first three major league saves and picked up a pair of holds, but he also blew four leads. That took on added importance as the D-Backs improbably stayed afloat in the playoff picture. Woodford had a decent stretch in early September but was tagged for multiple runs in each Spenser Watkins Jersey of his final three times out. That included blowing a two-run save opportunity and taking the lo s in Minnesota on September 12, followed by allowing four earned runs in two innings against the Phillies a week later. Woodford has appeared in parts of six major league seasons. He has done the majority of his work in long relief. He found some succe s as a ground-ball specialist with the Cardinals between 2021-22. The 28-year-old has had a tougher go in the past three seasons. Hes not getting as many grounders as he did earlier in his career and his stuff has never mi sed many bats. As a player with over three years of MLB service, Woodford has the right to decline an outright a signment in favor of free agency. Its likelier hell accept and remain with the Snakes in case injuries further up the depth chart open another opportunity. The D-Backs are within a game of the Mets for the National Leagues final playoff spot. Woodford would qualify for minor league free agency at the end of the season if the D-Backs dont reselect his contract. Luis Gonzalez Jersey
