2018
The Diamondbacks did not give Bukauskas a look at the major-league level in 2020, but they kept a close eye on him at the alternate site. Clearly, Arizona liked what it saw as he was added to the 40-man roster in November for Rule 5 protection. That move always seemed likely as the right-hander is a high-pedigree prospect and was a significant part of the return for Zack Greinke, but it's reassuring nonetheless after Bukauskas battled elbow and wrist issues in late 2019 and early 2020. He has shown a great strikeout punch when healthy with his mid-90s heat and plus slider, but with spotty command and control pointing to a likely future in relief. The Arizona bullpen looks wide open and Bukauskas could immediately be one of the team's better relievers upon arrival, if he's healthy and the stuff is on par with what we've seen from him in the past.
