The Arizona Diamondbacks were limited to just one deal at this year's Trade Deadline, despite heading into the August 3 cutoff as buyers. They traded for lefty-hitting outfielder Lars Nootbaar, while giving up No. So, what is it about Nootbaar that stood out to the D-backs? He's an on-base player rather than a slugger, though the Diamondbacks could have used both of those types of bat. "I've always been a big Lars Nootbaar fan," manager Torey Lovullo said.
