The Arizona Diamondbacks have claimed RHP Grant Holman off waivers from the Athletics. The 25-year-old Holman was originally a 6th-round pick by (then) Oakland in the 2021 draft, and made his major-league debut in August of 2024. He has made a total of forty appearances in the big leagues since, with an ERA of 4.66, and a K:BB of 33:18, across 38.2 innings, and a FIP of 4.34. Last year, he also made eight appearances for Triple-A Las Vegas, allowing just one hit across 9.1 scoreless innings, with one walk and nine strikeouts. However, his season ended after his appearance on June 11, due to rotator cuff tendinitis.<\/p>\n
He has just over one year of service time, so won\u2019t reach arbitration until 2028 and is under D-backs control until 2031. Grant also threw a no-hitter for California in the 2013 Little League World Series – the only time<\/a> since 1979 a 7-inning solo no-no has been pitched in LLWS history. Mind you, considering the game recap says<\/a> Holman was 6-foot-4 as a thirteen-year-old\u2026 He\u2019s only two inches taller now. To make room on the 40-man roster for the new arrival, LHP A.J. Puk was placed on the 60-day injured list, as he continues his recovery from left ulnar collateral ligament surgery. The D-backs\u2019 40-man roster remains at 40.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Arizona Diamondbacks have claimed RHP Grant Holman off waivers from the Athletics.
