Rosario signed a minor-league contract with the Diamondbacks, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
Rosario played in 50 games for Triple-A Memphis in the Cardinals' system in 2017, but also appeared in 23 games for the big-league club during the past two seasons.

Last season at Triple-A, he slashed .247/.291/.279 with 23 RBI and six extra-base hits.
