The 2015 Trade Deadline has come and passed and the Arizona Diamondbacks have decided to stand pat, and that is probably the best result that could have come out of today.
Just because the front office led by General Manager Dave Stewart, President of Baseball Operations Tony Stewart, and Team President Derrick Hall decided to stand pat, doesnt mean the Dbacks weren’t working the phones.
As of early this morning, the Diamondbacks were seen as the front runners to land Aroldis Chapman for several reasons.
CBS Sports Jon Heyman first reported last night that the Dbacks had made an offer for the fireball closer, and were waiting for the Reds to respond.
