Arizona Diamondbacks Reviews #29: Andrew Chafin

There really is not much need to give Andrew Chafin much of an introduction. The left-handed reliever is one of the franchise’s most prolific relievers, ranking second in appearances (Ziegler) and third in innings pitched (Ziegler, Kim). A member of the highly-touted 2011 draft class, the Diamondbacks made Chafin their third pick at #43 overall, after already selecting Trevor Bauer and Archie Bradley. Had COVID-19 not blown up the 2020 season, Chafin would have had a strong chance at becoming the franchise leade in both appearances and reliever innings pitched. Instead, COVID and injury limited Chafin’s appearances.
