MISSOULA, MT - The Arizona Diamondbacks sent right-hander Mitchell Stumpo to Missoula on Wednesday, and will join the team's bullpen immediately.

Following a physical examination in Scottsdale, the 6'2 righty appeared in two games for the Arizona League Diamondbacks, totaling three strikeouts on five hits in two innings of work.

On July 20, Stumpo threw ten pitches against the AZL Angels, all locating as strikes, striking out two.

A 2019 business administration graduate from Guilford College (NCAA DIII), Stumpo struck out 80 batters in 70.0 innings of work for the Quakers, limiting batters to a .250 average at the plate.

The 23-year-old free agent appeared at the Indy Pro Showcase in Florida, topping out at 96 mph. The Diamondbacks signed Stumpo as an undrafted free agent, and is set to debut for the Osprey.

Stumpo joins the company of former Diamondback and World Series-winner Tony Womack, who also attended Guilford College ('92) in Greensboro, NC.

Missoula ends the first half of the 2019 season on Thursday, where they'll begin a four-game series vs the Billings Mustangs.

All Osprey game tickets can be purchased at the MSO Hub Box Office, located at 140 North Higgins in Downtown Missoula, online at MissoulaOsprey.com and by phone (406) 543-3300.
