Trevor Clifton: Released by Arizona

Clifton was released by the Diamondbacks on Friday, JJ Cooper of Baseball America reports.

The 25-year-old righty was a noteworthy prospect with the Cubs after a breakout year at High-A in 2016, but that represents the high point in his prospect value. He had a 5.18 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 84:50 K:BB in 99 innings at Triple-A with the Cubs last year.
