According to ESPN's Buster Olney, the Arizona Diamondbacks spoke with other teams about trading top pitching prospect Trevor Bauer, the No. 3 pick in the 2011 draft, dating all the way back to last season's trade deadline.

The Arizona Diamondbacks' signing of starting pitcher Brandon McCarthy will reunite him with close friend and fellow starter Trevor Cahill. The two became friends in the Oakland rotation before Cahill was traded to Arizona a year ago.

The Arizona Diamondbacks sent pitching prospect Trevor Bauer away and gain shortstop Didi Gregorious in return. Many Diamondbacks fans are holding off on judging things just yet, but the reaction from Cleveland is a positive one.

Following the recent acquisition of a top-shortstop prospect, the D-backs could change up their farm system a bit.

While the Arizona Diamondbacks traded away talented pitching prospect Trevor Bauer, they did firm up the shortstop position, the clubhouse and perhaps Justin Upton's future.

Newly-signed Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Brandon McCarthy said he has fully recovered from a major head injury last season.

The Trevor Bauer trade will likely label him as one or the other.

The Diamondbacks will give their new young prospect a chance at the starting job in spring training.

As part of a three-team, nine-player deal on Tuesday night, the Arizona Diamondbacks acquired Cincinnati Reds shortstop Didi Gregorius. The 22-year-old reminds Diamondbacks GM Kevin Towers of a "young Derek Jeter."

The Diamondbacks general manager says the talks of trading Upton have fallen apart.
