Interesting to see the team going back to the NPB well for another potential bullpen arm, having already signed Scott McGough back from the land of the rising sun earlier this winter. Indeed, if you looked just at their 2022 stats, it might not be be immediately obvious which one got the guaranteed contract, and which will just be getting a look in spring training. Here are their lines:
McGough: 53.2 IP, 39 H, 16 R, 14 ER, 13 BB, 59 SO, 2.35 ERA
Biddle: 57.1 IP, 42 H, 21 R, 18 ER, 34 BB, 68 K, 2.
Diamondbacks sign Jesse Biddle to a minor-league contract
