Arizona Diamondbacks starting/relief pitcher Randall Delgado is making his final rehab appearance Wednesday and will be activated from the disabled list on Thursday. Delgado is on a 30-day rehab assignment that ends after Wednesday's game, meaning the Diamondbacks must activate him. It is expected that Delgado will have a role as a relief pitcher, which does not give him fantasy value for the time being.
Arizona Diamondbacks reliever Randall Delgado is dealing with a left oblique injury that puts doubt on his availability for Opening Day. While manager Torey Luvullo is unsure of Delgado's status for Opening Day, he has said that Delgado's timeline has been pushed back due to the injury. Delgado was set to be a key part of the D'Backs bullpen, but he is not a fantasy option as a middle reliever.
Arizona Diamonbacks relief pitcher Randall Delgado avoided arbitration with the team Tuesday, signing a $2.25 million, one-year deal. Delgado is coming off of a 2017 season where he threw 62 2/3 innings, his fewest since 2011, but he did have a 3.59 ERA for Arizona. He figures to be a part of the Arizona bullpen in 2018 that is currently without a veteran closer.
