Jonathan Loáisiga - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Tosses scoreless frame Loaisiga (shoulder) allowed one hit in a scoreless inning during Monday's 6-2 victory over the Giants.

Impact Loaisiga hadn't appeared in a game since May 19 after dealing with right shoulder fatigue, but he was given the green light to handle the eighth inning Monday. He's been one of Arizona's more reliable bullpen arms lately, as he's posted seven straight scoreless outings (six innings).

Has been nursing shoulder fatigue Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo revealed Monday that Loasiga has been dealing with right shoulder fatigue, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Loasiga has not pitched since late Tuesday and it's unclear whether he's available out of the bullpen Monday in San Francisco, but Lovullo said he had "no concern" about the reliever. The 31-year-old is unscored upon in six outings this month, lowering his season ERA to 2.79.

Another blown save Loaisiga was charged with a blown save Tuesday against the Mets, allowing one run on two hits while striking out one over one inning.

Impact Loaisiga entered the eighth inning with a one-run lead but quickly ran into trouble, allowing a pair of singles to put runners at the corners before Jared Young lifted a sacrifice fly to bring home the tying run. The 31-year-old has now blown back-to-back save opportunities after opening the season with four scoreless outings. Despite the recent struggles, Loaisiga still holds a respectable 2.84 ERA and should continue to see high-leverage opportunities alongside Paul Sewald, though potentially with a short leash moving forward.

Blows save opportunity Loaisiga blew the save, allowing one run on three hits while striking out one over one inning Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Loaisiga earned another save opportunity as he entered the ninth inning with a one-run lead but immediately ran into trouble, allowing three consecutive singles, including a game-tying RBI knock from Drake Baldwin. The 31-year-old managed to regroup from there, retiring the next three batters to preserve the game to extra innings. The run was Loaisiga's first allowed of the season across five appearances, but the flame throwing righty should still be trusted in high-leverage situations despite the slip up.

Secures rare save Wednesday Loaisiga allowed two hits and no walks in a scoreless ninth inning while picking up the save Wednesday against the Tigers.

Impact Closer Paul Sewald worked each of the last two days and three of the past four for the Diamondbacks, so he was perhaps unavailable for Wednesday's save chance. Loaisiga stepped up for his first save opportunity of the season, netting just his ninth career save, and the hard-throwing right-hander is at least in the mix for high-leverage work with 3.1 scoreless innings and a hold under his belt so far.

Makes D-backs debut Loaisiga struck out one over 1.1 scoreless and hitless innings in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Loaisiga retired all four batters faced in his Arizona debut. He finished out the fifth inning by striking out Kyle Tucker and induced an infield pop out and two groundouts in a 1-2-3 sixth. There's room to move in a bullpen that doesn't have a set closer, and Loaisiga could emerge as a late-inning option.

Added to roster The Diamondbacks selected Loaisiga's contract from Triple-A Reno on Wednesday.

Impact Loaisiga had been attending camp as a non-roster invitee but secured his place in Arizona's Opening Day bullpen after posting a 9:2 K:BB while permitting four earned runs and allowing nine hits over eight innings. He'll likely begin the season in a middle-relief role for Arizona but could quickly work his way into higher-leverage spots if he performs well early on.

Clinches roster spot The Diamondbacks informed Loaisiga on Saturday that he's secured a spot on the Opening Day roster, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Arizona will officially add Loaisiga to the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster shortly before Thursday's season opener in Los Angeles. The right-hander was able to secure a spot in the Arizona bullpen after posting a 7:2 K:BB while allowing three earned runs on eight hits over seven innings during the Cactus League. While Loaisiga is likely to begin the season in a middle-relief role, he could earn more higher-leverage opportunities if the options higher up in the bullpen pecking order falter early on.

Makes spring debut Loaisiga (elbow) struck out a batter and allowed one earned run on two hits and one walk over one inning of relief Saturday in the Diamondbacks' 8-5 win over the Angels in Cactus L...

Impact The 31-year-old made his first appearance of the spring Saturday and looks to be healthy again after a right elbow flexor strain limited him to just 29.2 innings in the big leagues with the Yankees in 2025. Loaisiga joined the Diamondbacks on a minor-league deal this winter but should have a good chance at claiming a spot in an unsettled Arizona bullpen heading into Opening Day if he can emerge from camp healthy.

Signs NRI deal with Diamondbacks The Diamondbacks signed Loaisiga (elbow) to a minor-league contract Tuesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Loaisiga dealt with injuries again in 2025, posting a 4.25 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 25:10 K:BB across 29.2 innings for the Yankees before his season ended prematurely due to a flexor strain. The expectation is that the righty will be ready for spring training, and Loasiga has flashed enough upside when on the bump that he'll have a good shot to win a roster spot if he can avoid another injury.

Option for 2026 declined The Yankees declined Loaisiga's (elbow) $5 million option for 2026 on Wednesday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Loaisiga had another season cut short due to injury in 2025 and posted a 4.25 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 25:10 K:BB across 29.2 innings. He missed most of the final two months of the regular season, first with a back issue and then with a flexor strain. Loaisiga did not require surgery for the latter injury and is expected to be ready for spring training, barring setbacks.
