The Diamondbacks reinstated Clippard (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Clippard is ready to make his season debut for Arizona after a right shoulder strain suffered in spring training kept him on the IL for nearly four months. The 36-year-old proved his health during a four-outing rehab assignment between the Diamondbacks' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate and Triple-A Reno, and he could quickly settle into a key late-inning role in an Arizona bullpen lacking in proven arms.
