Well it seems that the relief pitcher we picked up for Miller had a torn labrum (damn Cubs trying to ship us schotty product). and instead we get Mark Freed, a 24 yr old SP in AA. He doesn't show anymore promise than Noyce but there is some more value in Freed. Freed had a higher K/9IP and a higher K/BB in more IP than Noyce.
Still a salary dump in principle though.

The Diamondbacks were awarded 6-foot-5 left-hander Mark Freed from the Chicago Cubs organization after an examination revealed that left-hander David Noyce, one of the two players acquired in the Damian Miller trade, had a labrum tear.
Freed, 24, was 9-11 with a 5.16 ERA for Double-A East Tennessee last season.
