The Arizona Diamondbacks have reportedly added pitcher Derek Law on a minor league contract, with an invitation to Spring Training. This deal aims to bolster the team's bullpen, which has seen limited high-profile additions this offseason.
The contract for Law is valued at $1.5 million and includes incentives that could bring the total to $2 million, dependent on the number of games pitched. Law, who previously played for the Washington Nationals and Cincinnati Reds, had a career ERA of 3.69 entering this season.
Law missed the entire 2025 season after undergoing elbow surgery for a flexor strain, a situation mirrored by other Diamondbacks pitchers. His last full season in 2024 saw him pitch 90 innings with a 2.60 ERA. His fastball reaches the mid-to-upper 90s, complemented by a low-90s cutter as his primary pitch.
