The D-backs have added a left-handed reliever to their pitching staff.

The team announced Sunday it acquired Robby Scott from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for cash considerations.

Scott, 29, spent the past three seasons with the Boston Red Sox before being claimed off waivers from the Reds on Dec. 10.

Scott has a 3.91 ERA in 73 MLB appearances spanning 48.1 innings.

His busiest season was 2017, when he made 57 appearances and sported a 3.79 ERA.

Scott pitched just nine times in 2019 and gave up 10 hits and 6 runs in 6.2 innings.
