Mandatory Credit: Matt Kartozian-Imagn Images The Arizona Diamondbacks recalled left-hander Joe Mantiply from Triple-A Reno on Saturday after right-hander Cristian Mena was optioned following Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Diamondbacks used five relievers in Friday's 14-11 loss to the Dodgers, with Mena the most effective of the bunch when he delivered 3 2/3 scoreless innings and retired 11 of the 12 batters he faced.
The outing was Mena's 2025 debut after he made one appearance last season.
Mantiply, 34, was an All-Star in 2022 but he struggled in subsequent seasons and was sent down last month with a 15.95 ERA in eight appearances. In eight major league seasons, he is 11-13 with a 4.42 ERA in 254 appearances (five starts).
In six outings at Reno this season, Mantiply was 2-0 with a 3.00 ERA.
