The Diamondbacks added depth to their reliever box on Wednesday, getting their hands on pitcher Joakim Soria. The veteran opted for this option despite strong interest from several other teams.
It was informant Ken Rosenthal who reported the news in the late afternoon, adding that the deal in question would simply last for a season.
Soria will receive the sum of $ 3.5M for its services in 2021, with the possibility of raising an additional $ 500,000 in the event of a transaction. Living in the city of Scottsdale in Arizona, the newcomer has turned down more lucrative offers to be closer to his home.
