The Arizona Diamondbacks have reportedly added some infield depth.

The 37-year-old appeared in 73 games for the Oakland A’s last season, batting .207 with two home runs and 14 RBI while stealing three bases.

A career .245 hitter, Punto is primarly a second baseman, but has also played at third base, shortstop, first base and all three outfield positions.

A veteran of 14 MLB seasons, he has also played for the Philadelphia Phillies, Minnesota Twins, St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers.
