After the news broke concerning Mark Trumbo's trade to Seattle, both the player and Diamondbacks' manager Dave Stewart, took questions from the media.
Dave Stewart
- With Tuffy going down, we were in a situation where we really needed to do something.
- Yasmany swinging the bat as well as he is, we really needed to open up space for him.
- You guys have heard me say it many times, [Trumbo] is a player I have no interest in moving. He's one of my favorite players.
- Seattle repeatedly expressed interest in him.
