The Arizona Diamondbacks made just one trade deadline move—acquiring outfielder Lars Nootbaar from St. Louis—despite holding a wild card spot and pressing need for pitching help. GM Mike Hazen admitted frustration, saying multiple deals collapsed at the last minute even after aggressive offers, including top prospects. He drew a hard line against trading current MLB bullpen arms due to risk, calling this one of his most disappointing deadlines. With key pitchers like Soroka and Nelson expected back soon, Hazen hinted they’d have moved if the right deals surfaced—but still feel blindsided as NL rivals like the Padres landed big arms. Strong play hasn’t been enough to offset missed opportunities as the race heats up.
