Diamondbacks' Nate Savino: Sticking around in rookie ball
Rotowire
Single-A Visalia activated Savino (shoulder) from the 7-day injured list and assigned him to the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on May 23.
Savino had already made four rehab appearances in the ACL before being activated. After he missed the entire 2023 season while recovering from shoulder surgery, Savino will get some extended time in rookie ball to hone his control before he reports to a full-season affiliate. Through eight appearances (six starts) in the ACL thus far, Savino has posted an 0.69 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 18:10 K:BB in 13 innings.

Savino (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with the Diamondbacks' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate May 4 and has struck out six over 4.1 scoreless innings while allowing one hit and three walks through his first three appearances.
Savino remains on Single-A Visalia's 7-day injured list and is expected to join the Diamondbacks' California League affiliate once he completes his assignment in the ACL. Since being drafted in 2022, the 22-year-old lefty has yet to make his debut in full-season ball after undergoing surgery in 2023.

Diamondbacks' Nate Savino: Won't pitch this season
Rotowire
Savino will miss the 2023 season after undergoing shoulder surgery, Sam Dykstra of MLB.com reports.
A third-round pick out of Virginia in last year's draft, Savino will have to wait until 2024 to make his pro debut as a 22-year-old. The 6-foot-3 southpaw showed added velocity in his final college season and has a chance to develop into a back-of-the-rotation starter.
