Diamondbacks acquire Blake Swihart on Friday
The Arizona Diamondbacks have acquired catcher Blake Swihart from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for outfielder Marcus Wilson.
What It Means:
Swihart will head to Arizona after the Red Sox designated him for assignment earlier this week. Look for the 27-year old to get some playing time at catcher behind Carson Kelly.
In 26 at-bats this season, Swihart produced one home run and four RBI.
