Right at the trade deadline last season, the Texas Rangers sent lefty reliever Jake Diekman to the Arizona Diamondbacks and part of the return was reliever and pitching prospect, Wei-Chieh Huang. Huang, 25, is a Taiwanese pitcher who spent 2018 between High-A and Double-A partially with the Diamondbacks organization and partially with the Rangers.
In High-A ball, Huang made 19 appearances out of the bullpen throwing 31.1 innings and striking out an impressive 46 while posting a 2.59 ERA. He got the promotion to the D-Backs Double-A club and made 10 appearances including 2 starts. A WHIP of 1.
