Diamondbacks Roster Shake-Up | Phoenix News

The Diamondbacks just expanded their roster to 28 players, and they’re making smart moves to fill the spots. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. is back from injury after battling multiple setbacks, bringing energy and a lefty bat to the lineup — even if his stats haven’t matched expectations. Meanwhile, lefty Blake Walston, recovering from Tommy John surgery, returns from the IL to bolster a bullpen that desperately needs another arm. To make room, reliever Ryan Thompson heads to the 60-day list with a back strain — and his contract is up, signaling the end of his D-backs run. With Gurriel’s return creating outfield competition and Walston poised to make an impact, this roster shuffle could be key as the season winds down.
