A farewell to Daniel Descalso

Daniel Descalso is now a member of the Chicago Cubs. The utility player signed a two-year contract with them today, which guarantees him $5.1 million. He will earn $1.5 million next year, then $2.5 million in 2020, with a team option following at $3.5 million for 2021, and a $1.1 million buyout if not exercised. It’s a nice little bump for the 32-year-old - basically half as much again, over and above the $3.35 million Descalso earned during the last two seasons in the desert.

When the history of the Diamondbacks is written, it will be easy to forget about Descalso.
