Joe Saunders could be "an interesting trade piece" if the Arizona Diamondbacksfeel they are not a viable playoff contender, says Nick Cafardo in Sunday'sBoston Globe.
Saunders is a free agent after the season and the D-backs, who have depth in their rotation with Patrick Corbin, Tyler Skaggs and Trevor Bauer, are not expected to re-sign him. We all know that pulling off waiver deals isn't easy, but one possible fit could be the Orioles, who did not land a pitcher before the July 31 non-waiver deadline. Baltimore was among the teams linked to Saunders earlier this summer.
The D-backs are on the fringe of contention for a wild card berth - 6 1/2 games behind the second spot with a couple of teams ahead of them.
