Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen makes self-aware comments regarding his ability to maneuver certain trades

The Arizona Diamondbacks are set to deal outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Kansas City Royals, the DBacks confirmed.

The Diamondbacks made their first move of the Trade Deadline on Thursday, sending first baseman Josh Naylor to the Mariners for a pair of pitchers, and the question now is: Was that just the first of many deals they will make between now and the July 31 Deadline?

Their 6-0 loss to right-hander Paul Skenes on Sunday, July 27, meant the Diamondbacks left town having dropped two of three to a subpar Pittsburgh Pirates team. It also meant they lost a second consecutive game started by a pitcher who could be traded in the coming days.

The Diamondbacks traded Josh Naylor to Seattle, and whether that launches a firesale or buy/sell plan is undetermined with the deadline nearing.

Garcia is a 25-year-old left-hand relief pitcher the Diamondbacks just acquired from the Seattle Mariners as part of a trade that sent Josh Naylor to Seattle. Arizona also acquired right-hand starter Ashton Izzi in the deal, but he is in High-A Hillsboro to start his Diamondbacks career.
