The Diamondbacks re-signed Scott McGough to a minor league contract.
Fantasy Impact
McGough had his club option declined by Arizona earlier in the offseason. He returns on a minor league deal where he'll continue to add relief depth for the Diamondbacks.
The Diamondbacks have declined their mutual option on Scott McGough.
Fantasy Impact
McGough will now head to the free agent market after a tough 2024 season. He posted a 7.74 ERA and a 1.68 WHIP in 26 games last season.
Scott McGough allowed one earned run over 2 1/3 innings in Saturday's 9-2 loss to the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact
He surrendered one hit and one walk while striking out two. McGough's season-long struggles continued, as evidenced by his inflated 5.64 ERA and 1.61 WHIP. His inability to limit base runners and a low strikeout rate of 6.4 K/9 are concerning for fantasy managers looking for reliable relief options. With only one hold and multiple blown saves this season, McGough's role in high-leverage situations appears limited, making him a less desirable option in most fantasy formats.
The Diamondbacks have recalled Scott McGough from Triple-A Reno.
Fantasy Impact
McGough has pitched well in Reno and will now get the chance to rejoin the Diamondbacks’ bullpen. Humberto Castellanos was optioned in the corresponding move.
Scott McGough earned the save on Saturday against the Angels, working around a walk to throw a scoreless inning.
Fantasy Impact
In 37 games this season, McGough has posted a solid 2.93 ERA to go along with seven saves. Andrew Chafin earned the hold recording the final two outs of the eighth inning.
