1 year prove it deal for cheap.

He's a swing pitcher so no idea if he starts or relieves. Made 17 starts and 5 relief appearances.

I will be honest, I forgot this dude was out there he was injured for so long.

Honestly these are the types of signing I expect this year. Could be solid or could join the rest on the IL for half the year.

From Gambo:

The signing of Michael Soroka is pending a physical, but he will be a starting pitcher for Arizona. It does NOT preclude them from singing or trading for another starting pitcher. Arizona is still actively looking to add to their starting rotation and bullpen.

Hazen's gonna be shopping the clearance section of the free agent market.

This is a really good move though, especially at that price. He was solid last year and only 27. As a rookie, he looked like one of the next great Atlanta pitchers.

I am guessing Kelly returns soon and is our opening day starter.

Buy low, high upside. Former All-Star. Maybe he puts it together again and avoids injury. D-backs seem to do better when they don't make splashy signings and fly under the radar with transactions like these.

I hope so.

If they can get Kelly for like 17 million, then Soroka + Kelly is just 4.5 million over Jordan Montgomery

Crazy to think Kelly is entering free agency for the first time at 37! I guess that is what happens when you spend several years of your 20s in SK pitching!

if this team can get their pitching fixed we could be very dangerous. What is the update on Corbin Burnes? Any chance he is back this year?
