PHOENIX — The Arizona Diamondbacks have made a move to solidify the back end of their bullpen, adding four-time All-Star Mark Melancon on a $14 million, two-year deal.
The right-handed Melancon led the National League with 39 saves last year in his only season with the San Diego Padres.
He had a 4-3 record and 2.23 ERA to earn his fourth All-Star appearance and first since 2016.
He'll be 37 years old on opening day.
The D-backs had problems all over the roster last season, finishing with a 52-110 record, but a bad bullpen was among the worst issues.
