Diamondbacks Reinstate Reliever Andrew Saalfrank After One-Year Suspension for Betting on Baseball
- On June 5, 2025, left-handed reliever Andrew Saalfrank was activated from the ineligible list by the Arizona Diamondbacks and assigned to play in the Arizona Complex League.
- Saalfrank served a one-year suspension starting June 4, 2024, for placing 29 small bets totaling $445 on baseball games while in the minors between September 2021 and March 2022.
- Prior to his suspension, Saalfrank appeared in 10 scoreless relief outings during the 2023 regular season, maintained a 3.18 ERA across 11 postseason games, and in 2024, he pitched in two games allowing four runs over one inning.
- The Diamondbacks removed right-handed pitcher Scott McGough from their roster to create space for 27-year-old left-handed reliever Saalfrank.
- Saalfrank’s reinstatement allows him to build back his career in the minors, with a chance to return to the majors if he performs effectively in the Arizona Complex League.
