The Arizona Diamondbacks have stepped out of their comfort zone in building a successful team, said D’Backs assistant GM Amiel Sawdaye.
During an appearance on the Baseball Isn’t Boring podcast published on Tuesday, Sawdaye spoke with host Rob Bradford regarding the need for teams to go beyond their traditional means of operation to find the best players for their teams.
Sawdaye said:
“I agree that getting uncomfortable is part of it, especially when you’re signing big free agents.”
The comments underscored the Diamondbacks’ massive free-agent acquisition this offseason, Corbin Burnes. Sawdaye highlighted how crucial team ownership is in allowing executives to step outside their comfort zone.
