Diamondbacks Outright Three Players

By Keith Salkowski | October 7, 2021 at 4:45pm CDT

The offseason roster shuffle has begun in the desert.  The Diamondbacks announced that they’ve outrighted reliever Brandyn Sittinger, outfielder Henry Ramos and infielder Ildemaro Vargas to Triple-A Reno.  The moves leave the club with 37 players on their 40-man roster.

Sending those three down comes as no surprise, given the players’ performances so far. Sittinger joined the D-backs on a minor league deal prior to the 2020 season, and saw his first big league action last month.  He tossed 4 2/3 innings over five appearances, posting an unsightly 13.03 FIP.

Arizona signed the 29-year-old Ramos to a minor league deal on May 19 of this year.  He spent most of the season at Triple-A, and was called up September 5.  In 18 games he accumulated 55 plate appearances but only posted a meager 48 wRC+.

The well-traveled Vargas appeared in the big leagues each of the last five seasons, mostly with the Diamondbacks. He also played briefly for the Twins and Cubs last year.  In 381 total plate appearances at the MLB level, he’s put up -1.2 fWAR.

      That’s funny but in reality they are making room for guys that are Rule 5 eligible. They have quite some.

    Reno? There is a city outside of Reno called Sparks. The old joke is Reno is so close to Hell you can see Sparks….. And it’s so true.

    A team could do worse than have Vargas on its bench. That team could possibly do better, mind you… but they could do worse.

    Looks like they are giving up on 2022 and planning for 2023 onward.
