Jeremy Hazelbaker: Continuing career abroad

The center fielder spent the 2018 season at the Triple-A level in the Arizona, Minnesota and Tampa Bay organizations, batting a combined .204 with 11 home runs in 98 games.

Diamondbacks' Jeremy Hazelbaker: Sent back to minors
Jeremy Hazelbaker was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.The 30-year-old had a tough spring at the plate, batting just .133 in 30 at-bats. He did walk as many times as he struck out (9:9 K:BB) and swiped two bases, but the presence of Jarrod Dyson and Yasmany Tomas as reserve outfielders ultimately made Hazelbaker a roster redundancy. He'll head back to the minors to act as organizational depth.

He drove the first pitch he saw into the seats for a three-run homer in the top of the fifth and added an RBI single in the ninth. Despite this performance, Hazelbaker remains buried deep down Arizona's outfield depth chart heading into the postseason.

Diamondbacks' Jeremy Hazelbaker: Records two hits in rare start
Jeremy Hazelbaker went 2-for-4 with a triple Monday in the Arizona Diamondbacks' 9-2 loss to the Giants.With the Diamondbacks clinching a playoff berth over the weekend, manager Torey Lovullo elected to reward most of the team's regulars with a day out of the lineup. As a result, Hazelbaker checked into right field for J.D. Martinez in what was his first start since being recalled from Triple-A Reno on Sept. 9. It's likely that Lovullo will rest some of the everyday players a couple more times in the final week of the regular season, so Hazelbaker may be in line for another start or two.

Diamondbacks' Jeremy Hazelbaker: Brought back to majors
Jeremy Hazelbaker was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Saturday, Jack Magruder of FanRagSports.com reports.Hazelbaker returned to Arizona after Reno's elimination from the Triple-A playoffs. The 30-year-old is hitting .318 in 33 games with the big club this season, but he's been extremely fortunate on balls in play (.481 BABIP). He strikes out too much to maintain an average close to that over a larger sample. Expect him to play a limited role over the remaining weeks of the season.
