The Arizona Diamondbacks acquired RHP Stefan Crichton from the Baltimore Orioles for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Reno. In a separate transaction, the D-backs outrighted OF Yasmany Tomás to Reno. The D-backs’ 40-man roster is at 40.
Yasmany Tomas remains a Diamondback, after no-one was willing to pick up his contract, which has about $46 million left on it. However, the move does allow the team to take Tomas off the 40-man roster, and they wasted no time in making use of the space, picking up reliever Crichton from Baltimore for a sum reported to be $100,000.
