The Arizona Diamondbacks made the following roster moves:
- Reinstated RHP Ian Kennedy from the 15-day injured list (right calf inflammation).
- Reinstated RHP J.B. Bukauskas from the 60-day injured list (strained right shoulder) and optioned him to Triple-A Reno.
- Designated LHP Dallas Keuchel for assignment.
And so, Keuchel rides off into the distance, likely to become little more than one of the less-remembered answers when we do the end of year roster Sporcle. But by being designated for assignment, he has successfully cemented his position in a couple of categories of franchise history:
Worst pitcher (under 20 IP): I mentioned this one in Snake Bytes the other day, but in barely two total games of work, Keuchel cost the team very close to one win.
