Reports: Diamondbacks extend GM Mike Hazen through 2028

PHOENIX -- Arizona Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen has received a new contract through the 2028 season with a club option for 2029, according to multiple media reports.

Hazen has been the architect of the D-backs' rebuild, helping the team qualify for the playoffs this October for the first time since 2017. The 47-year-old has made several shrewd moves over the past year, including a trade with the Blue Jays that brought catcher Gabriel Moreno and outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to the franchise.

He also signed rookie Corbin Carroll to an $111 million, eight-year deal during spring training despite the fact that Carroll had only played 32 games in the big leagues before this season.
