Rotoworld Player News

Jacob Amaya

ARI Shortstop #0

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Diamondbacks signed INF Jacob Amaya to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Amaya was disastrous in his limited action with the White Sox in 2025, slashing a miserable .106/.139/.121 with zero home runs, eight RBI and a 16/3 K/BB ratio in 73 plate appearances. He’ll function as extra infield depth for the Diamondbacks.
Taylor Rashi

ARI Relief Pitcher #54

Diamondbacks re-signed RHP Taylor Rashi to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

The 29-year-old right-hander debuted with the Diamondbacks in 2025, compiling a 4.41 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and a 22/8 K/BB ratio over 16 1/3 innings in his 10 appearances while notching a pair of saves. He’ll get a chance to fight for a spot in the team’s Opening Day bullpen.
Merrill Kelly

FA Starting Pitcher #23

According to John Gambadoro of 98.7 FM in Phoenix, the Diamondbacks are interested in reuniting with right-hander Merrill Kelly.

Gambadoro also notes that the interest is mutual. The 37-year-old hurler spent six and a half seasons with the Diamondbacks before getting moved to the Rangers at the trade deadline. He finished the season with a solid 3.52 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and a 167/48 K/BB ratio over 184 frames in his 32 starts.
Pete Fairbanks

FA Relief Pitcher #29

Multiple outlets report that the Diamondbacks are showing interest in reliever Pete Fairbanks.

Fairbanks is one of the better relievers still available on the market, and the right-hander would fill the closing gig for Arizona. The 31-year-old saved 27 games in 2025 with a 2.83 ERA, and would be marked improvement — at least on paper — to what the D-backs got from their closers in 2025.
Tommy Henry

ARI Starting Pitcher #47

Diamondbacks re-signed LHP Tommy Henry to a minor league contract,

After being non-tendered last month, Henry is back with the only organization he’s ever known. The 28-year-old, who is 10-11 with a 5.07 ERA in 32 starts and five relief appearances as a major leaguer, is slated to miss most of all of 2026 following Tommy John surgery in July.
Alek Thomas

ARI Center Fielder #5

Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports that it “seems more likely” that Arizona’s trade options this offseason “involve outfielders Jake McCarthy and Alek Thomas.”

Both players are arbitration-eligible, so this would be a move to free up salary cap space; however, Piecoro also notes that the Diamondbacks believe they have plenty of options to move into that vacated outfield role, including Jorge Barossa, Tim Tawa, Blaze Alexander, and even Jordan Lawlar, who has been playing center field this winter. Nothing is imminent, but this remains a story to watch because of what it could mean for Lawlar or Tawa’s playing time.
Ketel Marte

ARI 2nd Baseman #4

MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reported that the Diamondbacks are “actively listening” to trade proposals for 2B Ketel Marte.

Morosi reports that it’s “at least a 50/50 chance that Ketel Marte is moved” this offseason. As of now, nothing is close, but multiple teams - like the Phillies and Blue Jays - have checked in on Marte’s availability. Neither the Phillies nor the Blue Jays are on Marte’s limited no-trade clause, so either team could acquire him without Marte’s approval. This will be one of the key storylines to watch this offseason.
Junior Fernandez

ARI Relief Pitcher #40

Diamondbacks signed RHP Junior Fernandez to a minor league contract.

The 28-year-old hurler split his 2025 season between the Royals’ and Mets’ organizations where he compiled a 4.40 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and a 57/27 K/BB ratio over 43 innings at the Triple-A level. He’ll add bullpen depth in the upper minors for the Diamondbacks.
Zac Gallen

FA Starting Pitcher #23

Zac Gallen told reporters at a recent community event in Phoenix that he would love to return to the Diamondbacks.

The 30-year-old hurler elaborated, “I would love to be back here. I would love to be here for the rest of my career... I think what sometimes gets lost in translation is that’s not necessarily always up to the player.” It sounds like the Diamondbacks may be the ones who aren’t interested in bringing Gallen back on a lucrative multi-year deal. It’s possible that we may see him take a one-year deal this winter in order to rebuild his value before hitting the free agent market once again next offseason.
James McCann

ARI Catcher #8

Diamondbacks re-signed C James McCann to a one-year, $2.75 million contract.

McCann can earn another $500,000 in incentives. The 35-year-old will be the backup backstop to Gabriel Moreno in 2026.
