The Arizona Diamondbacks have sent pitcher
Blake Walston back down to Triple-A Reno. Walston made his debut on Monday versus the Los Angeles Dodgers. Walston went 3 2/3 out of the bullpen for the Diamondbacks and was wild with four walks and two runs allowed. Walston's trip was brief, but it is likely that he will be back with the Diamondbacks when they need more pitching depth or an injury occurs. Replacing Walston on the active roster will be pitcher
Matt Bowman. Bowman was acquired from the Minnesota Twins for cash considerations on Thursday. Both Walston and Bowman can remain on the waiver wire in all formats.

Free-agent right-hander
Matt Bowman signed a minor-league deal with the Minnesota Twins on Thursday that includes an invite to spring training, according to a source. He'll make $925,000 if he reaches the majors. Bowman spent the last three seasons in the New York Yankees organization and made three relief appearances for the Bombers in 2023, allowing four earned runs on six hits (one homer) while walking two and striking out three in four innings. It was the 32-year-old's first appearances in the big leagues since 2019 with the Cincinnati Reds. Bowman is strictly going to provide minor-league relief depth for the Twins to open the 2024 season. Bowman has a 4.13 ERA (3.73 FIP) and 1.28 WHIP with two saves, 64 walks and 152 strikeouts in 185 1/3 relief innings in his five years in the majors with the Yankees, St. Louis Cardinals and Reds.
