"Joc Pederson Joins the 2024 Diamondbacks Outfield"

Joc Pederson has signed a one-year deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks, providing a left-handed power bat to the team's lineup. With notable platoon splits, he may serve as the everyday designated hitter or a weapon against right-handed pitchers. Pederson's strong offensive numbers and postseason experience add depth to the Diamondbacks' batting order, which is currently right-handed heavy. The team may need to consider platooning options to balance the lineup, and Pederson's defensive versatility and experience at first base could provide roster flexibility.

"Diamondbacks Secure Deal with All-Star Joc Pederson"

The Arizona Diamondbacks have reportedly signed outfielder Joc Pederson to a one-year, $12.5 million deal with a mutual option for 2025.
