MLB Immaculate Grid Answers August 28: Which Athletics players have also played for the Diamondbacks?

Oakland Athletics Hall of Famer Eric Chavez is the first name that comes to mind. The former 3B spent almost his entire career with the Athletics. He was selected in the first round of the 1996 MLB draft and went on to make his major league debut for Oakland in 1998, where he would stay until 2010.

Chavez then joined the New York Yankees, spending two seasons in the Bronx before wrapping up his playing career with another two-year stint, this time with the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Eric Byrnes seems to be the people’s choice, with 17% of participants opting for the former outfielder. Just like Chavez, Byrnes began his major league adventure with the A’s. He was a first round draft pick during the 1998 MLB draft and went on to make his major league debut two years later.

Byrnes left the Athletics in 2005 and went on to sign for the Diamondbacks the next year following very brief spells with the Colorado Rockies and Baltimore Orioles.

Byrnes would stay in Arizona until 2009 before signing for the Seattle Mariners, where he played one solitary campaign before announcing his retirement. He went on to become an analyst for MLB Network.
