Joe Mantiply: Becomes free agent
The Diamondbacks released Mantiply on Sunday.
Mantiply passed through waivers unclaimed after being removed from Arizona's 40-man roster and is now free to seek a gig in a new organization. The left-handed reliever has been torched for 17 runs on 26 hits and three walks over 9.2 innings at the big-league level in 2025.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: DFA'd by Snakes
The Diamondbacks designated Mantiply for assignment Friday.
The move makes room on the Diamondbacks' roster for Jeff Brigham, whose contract was selected by Arizona from Triple-A Reno. Mantiply was sent down to Triple-A on May 15 after posting a 15.83 ERA and 3.00 WHIP across 9.2 major-league innings. He hasn't fared that much better in Triple-A with a 5.56 ERA and 1.53 WHIP in 11.1 innings.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Shuttled back to minors
Mantiply was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Thursday, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.
Mantiply has struggled mightily in the majors this season, allowing multiple earned runs in half of his 10 appearances. He'll head back to Reno for the second time and seek to regain the solid form he's showcased for the last few campaigns.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Back in Arizona
The Diamondbacks recalled Mantiply from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.
Mantiply has given up 13 runs in only 7.1 innings with the D-backs this season, but he's only allowed two runs in six frames since being sent down to Triple-A. He'll get another look in the majors as a replacement for Cristian Mena, though it's unlikely Arizona uses Mantiply outside of low-leverage situations.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Sent down to Reno
The Diamondbacks optioned Mantiply to Triple-A Reno on Saturday.
Mantiply has struggled mightily in the big leagues this season, giving up 13 earned runs in just 7.1 innings. He'll attempt to get back on track in Triple-A, though the D-backs may want to see him sustain success for an extended period of time before inserting him back into their bullpen.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: ERA on rise
Mantiply allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out one over one inning in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Marlins.
The Diamondbacks were leading, 10-1, when Mantiply opened the seventh inning, so the scoring allowed didn't jeopardize the club, but the left-hander hasn't executed thus far. He isn't overpowering, so he needs to be precise with location. Mantiply's given up runs in his last three outings, pushing his ERA to 13.50 over 6.2 innings (seven outings).

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Added to closer mix
In discussing Arizona's closer role, manager Torey Lovullo mentioned Mantiply as someone that could get save opportunities, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports. "I don't want to dismiss Joe Mantiply," Lovullo said. "He's really good against lefties. So I don't know what the answer is, but I'll probably go more matchup based for right now until it's the right time to make that decision."
Lovullo feels all the candidates to close, which include Kevin Ginkel, Justin Martinez and A.J. Puk, have thrown well this spring. There's still a handful of Cactus League games the manager can use to evaluate, but this process could play out into the regular season. Mantiply has a 1.35 ERA with three walks and three strikeouts over 6.2 spring innings.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Avoids arbitration with Arizona
Mantiply and the Diamondbacks avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $1.7 million contract Thursday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
Mantiply finished the 2024 regular season with a 6-2 record across 75 appearances (including two starts) and posted 16 holds with a 3.92 ERA and 1.17 WHIP across 59.2 innings. The 33-year-old out of Virginia Tech will provide the Diamondbacks with a southpaw option out of the bullpen for the 2025 campaign.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Opening Tuesday's contest
Mantiply will start Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
The veteran left-hander will serve as an opener for the second time this season and the fifth time in his career. Mantiply hasn't recorded more than five outs in an appearance this season and should hand things over to Ryne Nelson after an inning or two Tuesday.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Set to open Monday's game
Manager Torey Lovullo said Mantiply will serve as the Diamondbacks' opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Dodgers, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
The left-handed Mantiply has limited opposing lefties to a .275 wOBA over his career, so the Diamondbacks will likely hope that he can limit the damage from the Dodgers' usual Nos. 2 and 3 hitters -- left-handed batters Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman -- before he turns the game over to the bullpen. Monday had been Slade Cecconi's turn in the rotation, and the expectation is that he'll work behind Mantiply in bulk relief.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Nabs first save of 2024
Mantiply struck out one in a scoreless two-thirds of an inning to record his first save of the season in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Reds.
With Paul Sewald unavailable after making his season debut Tuesday and Kevin Ginkel struggling to shut the door in the ninth inning, Mantiply got the call and fanned Will Benson before getting Jonathan India to fly out with the winning run on second base for Cincy. Sewald will be the top option for saves in the Arizona bullpen, but as the team's top lefty reliever, Mantiply could see further situational chances. He's been reasonably effective this season, posting a 3.52 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB through 15.1 innings.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Earns relief win
Mantiply (1-0) picked up Wednesday's win over Colorado, retiring the lone batter faced in the eighth inning.
Mantiply entered to get the final out of the inning against the lefty-hitting Michael Toglia. That put the pitcher in line for the win when the Diamondbacks scored two runs in the top of the ninth. Following a rough season debut (two runs, three hits, one inning), the left-hander has authored five consecutive scoreless outings. Mantiply will continue to work as a seventh/eighth inning reliever in setup for fill-in closer Kevin Ginkel.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Tosses scoreless inning
Mantiply allowed a walk over a scoreless inning in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to Atlanta.
Mantiply's effort spanned the seventh and eighth innings and was his third straight scoreless outing after he ceded a pair of runs in his regular-season debut. The lefty could be used at any time in a game and is one of two southpaws in the bullpen.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Makes spring debut
Mantiply allowed one hit and hit two batters over a scoreless inning in Friday's spring game against Cincinnati.
Mantiply loaded the bases with one out but wriggled out of the jam by inducing a 5-2-3 double play. That he faced adversity and pitched out it is the positive spin on the left-hander's first Cactus League appearance. He's expected to occupy a spot in the bullpen to open the season, but the one-time high-leverage option needs better results to reclaim a trusted role in 2024. Mantiply recorded a 4.62 ERA with a diminished strikeout rate and increased walk rate in 2023.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Avoids arbitration with Arizona
Mantiply signed a one-year, $935,000 contract with the Diamondbacks on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Mantiply lost his role as a high-leverage option out of the Arizona bullpen in 2023, as he posted a 4.62 ERA across 39 frames in the majors. He saw a significant dip in strikeouts and his lack of velocity could continue to lead to inconsistent results.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: To open Game 4
Mantiply will work as the opener for Game 4 of the World Series against the Rangers on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Mantiply last pitched during Game 1, striking out one batter over a scoreless inning of relief work. He figures to work the first inning or so before handing the ball to a primary pitcher. The Diamondbacks have yet to reveal any pitching plans past Mantiply, but Ryne Nelson would figure to be one of the top candidates to get outs, as he's yet to take the mound this series.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Starting bullpen game
Mantiply will start Game 4 of the NLCS against the Phillies on Friday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Mantiply has made four appearances during Arizona's postseason run, but he was roughed up in Game 2 against the Phillies, when he allowed three earned runs while recording just one out. He's likely to pitch only one inning, with Ryne Nelson a strong candidate to cover bulk innings after him.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Opening Sunday
Mantiply will start Sunday's game against the Cubs, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
The 32-year-old will make his third start of the season as the Diamondbacks decided to go with an opener ahead of expected primary pitcher Brandon Pfaadt, who was originally scheduled to start the contest. Mantiply has covered as much as three frames in an appearance this season, but he's likely to pitch only an inning or two Sunday.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Serving as opener Monday
Mantiply is scheduled to work as the Diamondbacks' opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Rangers, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
Mantiply hasn't tossed more than three innings in any of his 31 appearances in the majors or minors this season and hasn't exceeded two innings in more than two months, so he's unlikely to work more than once through the Texas batting order before exiting the contest. Slade Cecconi, who had initially been listed as Arizona's scheduled starter for Monday, will most likely work in bulk relief behind Mantiply.

Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Takes loss
Mantiply (1-1) was charged with Monday's loss to the Rockies. He allowed three runs on three hits and did not retire a batter.
Mantiply and Scott McGough combined to cough up an Arizona lead in the eighth inning. Mantiply, who is expected to serve as an opener Tuesday, threw just 11 pitches, so Monday's usage should not prevent him from carrying out that assignment. Since returning to the majors Aug. 1, the left-hander has allowed six runs on six hits and one walk over 4.1 innings.
