Former Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Michael Soroka has signed with the Arizona Diamondbacks, entering his seventh Major League Baseball season with his new club. The right-hander became a free agent and quickly found a landing spot in the National League West.
Soroka, who previously pitched for the Atlanta Braves before joining the Cubs organization, will look to reestablish himself in Arizona's rotation. The 29-year-old Canadian has shown flashes of his All-Star form from 2019 but has battled injuries in recent seasons.
The Diamondbacks add depth to their pitching staff with Soroka's experience, hoping he can contribute as they aim to build on their recent playoff appearance. Terms of the agreement were not immediately disclosed.
