The Diamondbacks announced this afternoon that right-hander has been designated for a signment. Left-hander was recalled to the big league roster to replace Bowman on the clubs active roster. Bowman, who will celebrate his 33rd birthday on Friday, joined the Diamondbacks earlier this month when he was in cash deal with the Twins. At the time of the deal, Bowman had been squeezed off of Minnesotas 40-man roster despite a solid showing in five appearances, where he posted a 2.35 ERA in 7 2/3 innings of work. Unfortunately, the wheels have come off for Bowman acro s his four appearances with Arizona, as hes been shelled for six runs on eight hits and two walks in Robert Covington Jersey 6 2/3 innings of work that have ballooned his ERA to 5.02 on the year. A 13th-round pick by the Mets in the 2012 draft, Bowman had considerable succe s with the Cardinals in the first two seasons of his big league career from 2016 to 17. In a combined 126 1/3 innings of work, Bowman posted a solid 3.70 ERA (112 ERA+) with a stronger 3.47 FIP. That seemingly portended a succe sful career near the back of big league bullpens, but things didnt work out that way as Bowman struggled to well below average results with St. Louis the following season, prompting the club to part ways with him. He pitched for the Reds in 2019 to an impre sive 129 ERA+ in 32 innings of work but a series of elbow injuries, including one that required Tommy John surgery, wiped out Bowmans 2020-22 campaigns. The veteran resurfaced with the Yankees last year but was torched for a 9.00 ERA and 6.51 FIP in four innings of work before returning to the minor leagues. Arizona will now have one week to trade Bowman or attempt to pa s him through waivers. The right-hander has been outrighted previously during his big league career and as a result can reject an outright a signment in favor of free agency should he so choose. Replacing Bowman on the clubs 40-man roster is Walston, who is slated to take the ball for todays start against the Marlins. Itll be the first big league start and just the second MLB appearance of Walstons young career. Arizonas first-round pick in the 2019 draft, the 23-year-old climbed his way through up the minor league ladder to make his big league debut earlier this year, when he struck out five in 3 2/3 innings of work against the Dodgers while allowing two runs on three hits and four walks. That admirable effort against one of the leagues most intimidating offenses has earned Walston another opportunity in the majors thanks in part to the injuries facing the Dbacks rotation. Marquee offseason signing has yet to throw a pitch for the club this year due to a strained lat and hes been joined on the 60-day injured list by veteran righty , who is battling a shoulder strain.
