Diamondbacks claimed OF Jesús Sánchez off waivers from the Blue Jays.

Sánchez heads out west to help Arizona as a platoon option for the remainder of their late-season playoff push. The 28-year-old corner outfielder was designated for assignment by Toronto last week after hitting just .260/.318/.416 with eight homers and one steal in 299 plate appearances. The lackluster offensive production was manageable for the Blue Jays, but it became unpalatable when paired with utterly abysmal defense. He’ll split time in the outfield corners, in addition to spending some time at DH, for the Diamondbacks over the final two weeks of the season.
