DENVER (AP) -The Arizona Diamondbacks designated infielder Donnie Sadler for assignment before Thursday's game with the Colorado Rockies. Sadler, who was brought up from Triple-A Tucson last Friday, was 0-for-1 in his brief stay with the Diamondbacks. The move became necessary when infielder Jason Smith was claimed off waivers on Wednesday from Toronto. Smith hit .212 and had a triple and four RBIs in 27 games with the Blue Jays. ``Jason is a good fit for us because he can play anywhere in the infield,'' Arizona manager Bob Melvin said. ``We really don't have a shortstop option behind Stephen Drew.'' Smith arrived late Wednesday in Denver and was in the lineup at shortstop Thursday. |
