The Deal
Santana, 39, remains a productive bat against right-handed pitching and a respected veteran. He can play first base and DH, giving the Diamondbacks flexibility. The low-cost deal fits Arizona's need for a right-handed power option without a long-term commitment.
AthX Impact
Santana's AthX value is limited by age and likely part-time usage, but his power and walk rate can still produce fantasy value when he plays. Monitor his role and platoon usage in 2026.
