Former Alabama baseball pitcher Matt Foster's move from the LMB in Mexico to the Arizona Diamondbacks organization was made official by the Triple-A Reno Aces on Saturday. Foster's signing was first reported by his LMB team, the Algonderos Union Laguna, on June 11.

He elected free agency last November following an outright assignment to Triple-A by the Chicago White Sox, the team for which he made his major league debut in 2020. Foster underwent Tommy John surgery that cost him the entire season in 2023, going on to pitch in six MLB games last year.

The right-hander worked to a 0.66 earned run average in Mexico this season. He's on a minor league pact, but the big-league team has sustained multiple recent bullpen injuries over the last several days. Foster has a career 4.30 MLB ERA in 119.1 innings.
