Introduction
Matt Andriese was acquired by the Diamondbacks just prior to the 2018 trade deadline in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for minor league pitcher, Brian Shaffer and minor league catcher, Michael Perez. Perez was immediately added to Tampa Bay’s 25-man roster and has been a mainstay since. The deal was likely the first of Mike Hazen’s tenure as GM that felt poorly-judged.
