The Diamondbacks reassigned Scribner to their minor-league camp Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner made a spot start for Arizona last season when injuries took a toll on the rotation, but he languished in that outing and was dropped from the 40-man roster shortly thereafter. He'll be back with the organization in 2019 but will function as little more than starting depth in the high minors.

Scribner (shoulder) was released by the Diamondbacks on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner was on the minor-league disabled list due to right shoulder inflammation at the time of this transaction. The right-hander had only appeared in one big-league game in 2018 and held a 5.11 ERA over 44 innings for Reno. He will look to latch on with another organization in the coming weeks as a veteran that has the ability to serve in the rotation or bullpen.

Scribner was placed on Triple-A Reno's 7-day disabled list Friday with right shoulder inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner made a spot start for the big club May 12 when the Diamondbacks, but was optioned back to the minors after giving up two runs on four hits and six walks in 3.2 innings. The right-hander has maintained an underwhelming 5.11 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 44 innings with Reno this season and seems unlikely to receive another look with Arizona even once the shoulder issue is behind him.

Scribner was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner will return to the minors after taking the loss in his Saturday start, allowing two runs on four hits and six walks over 3.2 innings. He's a candidate to return the majors later in the season if the Diamondbacks are in need of a spot start.

Scribner (0-1) took the loss Saturday agains the Nationals, allowing two runs on four hits and six walks across 3.2 innings. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

It was a tough task facing Stephen Strasburg and the Nationals in his first start for the Diamondbacks, but Scribner did little to help himself in this one, tossing just 59 of his 98 pitches for strikes while recording just 11 outs before getting the hook. He loaded the bases up in the third and fourth inning but was able to limit the damage to two runs, with the help of Jorge De La Rosa. Still, two runs was all the Nationals needed with Strasburg on the bump, saddling Scribner with the loss. He'll likely head back to Triple-A Reno while the Diamondbacks work with a four-man rotation for the time being thanks to an mid-week off day, but he could rejoin the rotation for a road start against the Brewers later in the month.

Scribner will take the hill versus the Nationals on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner is on the "taxi squad" for Friday's game after being recalled from Triple-A Reno in advance of his 2018 debut. Over five starts with the Aces, he's posted a 5.68 ERA and 1.31 WHIP with a 24:11 K:BB in 25.1 innings. It remains to be seen whether Scribner will head back down to Reno following Saturday's start or if there's potential for a second outing, but in all likelihood, he will probably be optioned back to Reno with the Diamondbacks receiving a well-placed off day next Thursday.

Scribner is a candidate to receive a promotion from Triple-A Reno to start Saturday for the Diamondbacks against the Nationals, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

EDGE Analysis

Earlier this week, Arizona assistant general manager Jared Porter mentioned Scribner, Taylor Clarke, Jake Buchanan and Albert Suarez as the top candidates to assume the rotation spot vacated by Robbie Ray (oblique), who will miss his second straight turn Saturday. Since Porter's announcement, Buchanan and Suarez have both made appearances with Reno, likely taking a promotion for either off the table. While both Scribner (5.68 ERA, 1.31 WHIP in 25.1 innings) and Clarke (5.91 ERA, 1.63 WHIP in 35 innings) have been similarly underwhelming at Reno, Clarke isn't a member of the 40-man roster, seemingly conferring Scribner the edge for a potential callup. Expect Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo to name a new fifth starter at some point Friday.

Scribner was claimed by the Diamondbacks on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner was designated for assignment by the Angels on Tuesday to make room for Akeel Morris. He was claimed by Arizona and optioned to Triple-A Reno. The 26-year-old reached the majors for the first time last season, tossing 23.2 innings with a 4.18 ERA and a 7.00 FIP. In a corresponding move, Jeremy Hazelbaker was designated for assignment.

Scribner was designated for assignment by the Angels on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

To make room on the 40-man roster for the newly-acquired Akeel Morris, the Angels decided to designated Scribner for assignment. Should he clear waivers, expect Scribner to remain at Triple-A Salt Lake, where he posted a 4.35 ERA and 1.34 WHIP over 20 games (103.1 innings) last season.

Scribner was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Scribner posted a 4.18 ERA in 23.2 innings with the Angels last season, though it came with an ugly 7.00 FIP. The 26-year-old righty will return to Triple-A, where he recorded a 4.35 ERA in 103.1 innings last season, and could be back up when someone in the Angels' injury-prone pitching staff inevitably gets injured, though his track record doesn't suggest he'll be a particularly interesting fantasy asset if and when he returns to the big leagues.
