Diamondbacks acquired RHP Armando Galarraga from the Tigers for RHP Kevin Eichhorn and LHP Ryan Robowski.
Because the Tigers were able to swing a trade, they will not be responsible for any of his $2.3 million contract for 2011. Galarraga will likely compete against Barry Enright and Aaron Heilman for the final spot in the starting rotation. We'd normally say a pitcher would get a boost going to the National League, but Galarraga's fly ball rate last season could prove to be troublesome in the desert.
