Summary
Carlos Santana’s Arizona Diamondbacks stint ends abruptly after just eight games, hitting a meager .083 with no other team claiming him off waivers. Signed as a veteran cost-cutting move to fill first base after trading Josh Naylor, Santana’s season was derailed by a groin injury and poor performance, even in rehab games where he hit just .125. Now a free agent, Santana’s quiet exit leaves the Diamondbacks with the league’s worst OPS at first base — and still searching for a solution.
