The D-backs have signed Sean Reid-Foley to a minor league contract after he was released by the Mets. He will initially join Triple-A Reno. Reid-Foley, 29, has faced injury problems, including Tommy John surgery in 2022. While he’s shown impressive strikeout potential with a 2.15 ERA in 29 1/3 major league innings, he also has persistent command issues, evident in high walk and wild pitch rates. His performance at Triple-A was poor, yet he still managed a high strikeout rate, portraying the duality of his skills and the risks in his acquisition.
Reid-Foley has shown huge swing-and-miss ability but also persistent command troubles, particularly after undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2022, impacting his performance.
Despite struggling with location and a high walk rate, Reid-Foley's strikeout capabilities and history of injuries make him an intriguing project for the D-backs.
