Diamondbacks signed C/1B Blake Lalli to a minor league contract.

EDGE Analysis

Jun 7, 2017 - The 34-year-old was cut loose by the Braves' organization on May 18. He's nothing more than organizational depth at this stage of his career.

Lalli signed a minor league contract with the Braves on Tuesday, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.

Lalli elected free agency earlier this month after being designated for assignment by Atlanta, but he opted to wind up back in their organization rather than fully test the market. Lalli will likely head back into an organizational depth role for the rebuilding franchise.

Lalli's contract was selected by the Braves on Sunday.
