Diamondbacks sign righty from Twins' disastrous 2025 post-trade deadline bullpen

The Diamondbacks have signed former Twins righty Thomas Hatch to a minor league deal with a non-roster invitation to major league camp, according to MLB Trade Rumors' Anthony Franco.

The Twins claimed Hatch, 31, off waivers from the Kansas City Royals in early August after trading five relievers (Jhoan Durán, Griffin Jax, Louis Varland, Brock Stewart and Danny Coulombe) at the trade deadline.

Hatch struggled during his tenure with Minnesota, posting a 5.45 ERA with 21 strikeouts and six walks over 33 innings. However, the Twins knew they wouldn't make the postseason when they acquired Hatch, so the fact that he was able to pitch 33 innings as a long reliever was valuable for Minnesota, despite his poor results.
