(Arizona Sports) Diamondbacks recall top pitching prospect Yilber Diaz, option Slade Cecconi

Diaz returns for his second major league opportunity after making four starts for the Diamondbacks in July. He filled in with Merrill Kelly and Eduardo Rodriguez on the injured list.

The 23-year-old put together three very promising starts at Chase Field totaling 17 innings with two earned runs, 14 strikeouts and seven walks. He also allowed seven earned runs in Kansas City, so overall he worked a 4.05 ERA in his first MLB look.
