Archie N. Bradley (born August 10, 1992) is a professional baseball player for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
He was drafted seventh overall by the Diamondbacks in the 2011 Major League Baseball Draft out of Broken Arrow Senior High in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.
After transferring from Muskogee High School to Broken Arrow High School before his junior year, Bradley quickly became the starting quarterback on the school's varsity football team and a starting pitcher for the baseball team. After his junior year, Bradley was named to the 2010 Aflac All-American Baseball Classic roster.[4] In 2011, during his senior season, he led the team to a 36-2 record and its first 6A State Championship since 1991. In the championship game against the Rams of Owasso High School, Bradley struck out 14 batters and allowed just two hits over seven innings in a 4-0 win.[5] He finished his senior season with a 12-1 record, allowing just three earned runs in 71 1/3 innings, walking 11 batters and striking out 133.[6]
He committed to play both football and baseball at the University of Oklahoma, but signed with the Diamondbacks instead.[7] ESPN baseball insider, Keith Law, ranks Bradley as the number nine prospect in the 2011 draft. Archie was selected as the 7th Overall pick in the 2011 MLB Draft to the Arizona Diamondbacks.[8]
On August 15, 2011, with only minutes left until the signing deadline, Bradley signed a contract with the Diamondbacks for $5 million, to be spread out over five years due to his two-sport ablilities. Instead of going to college to play both football and baseball, he was sent to Arizona for workouts at the rookie level before being sent to the Arizona League.[9]
Bradley is a 6'4", 225 lb. right-handed pitcher who features a slight 3/4 arm angle with a 2-seam fastball in the 92-95 mph range, a 4-seam fastball occasionally elevating to 98-99 mph, and 82-83 mph 12-6 curveball, and a developing change up.

Mike DeMark (born May 20, 1983 in Jeannette, Pennsylvania) is a minor league baseball pitcher in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization.
From Marietta College, he signed undrafted to the Florence Freedom. Later, on January 12, 2007, he would be signed by the San Diego Padres organization, and play in the Class A-Advanced California League for the Lake Elsinore Storm. In 2008, DeMark moved to the Double-A Texas League to play for the San Antonio Missions. Between 2008 and 2010 Mike DeMark moved between the San Antonio Missions and the Class AAA Portland Beavers.
In 2009, he helped San Antonio win the season's first-half championship and was awarded for his work with a trip to the Texas League All-Star Game in Frisco, Texas[10]
Leaving the (defunct) Portland Beavers (now the Tucson Padres), DeMark saw great success during a brief stint in York Pennsylvania playing for the York Revolution. On June 3, 2011 DeMark's success was rewarded, signing with the Arizona Diamondbacks organization and placed on the Double-A Southern League team, the Mobile BayBears.
Seeing strong closing performances from DeMark during his time with the Mobile BayBears, on August 30, 2011 he was promoted to Class AAA Pacific Coast League team, the Reno Aces.
[edit] Brett Lorin

| Arizona Diamondbacks – No. 57 | |
| Pitcher | |
| Bats: Left | Throws: Right |
Brett A. Lorin (born March 31, 1987) is a baseball pitcher in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization. He was a fifth round pick by the Seattle Mariners in 2008. On July 29, 2009, he was acquired by the Pittsburgh Pirates from the Mariners; along with Jeff Clement, Ronny Cedeno, Aaron Pribanic, and Nathan Adcock; in exchange for Jack Wilson, Ian Snell, and cash considerations.
He missed most of the 2010 season due to injuries and spent much of 2010 on rehab assignments with the Gulf Coast Pirates and West Virginia Power. He rejoined the Marauders in 2011, only after an extended spring training assignment.
Prior to his professional career, Lorin played baseball while attending the University of Arizona and Cal State Long Beach. He struggled at the University of Arizona and after a medical redshirt year in 2006, he had a 9.31 ERA in limited work in 2007. He transferred to Cal State Long Beach and was 5-3 with a 2.61 ERA as a junior.
[edit] Reid Mahon
Reid Mahon (born June 1, 1983 in Saint Paul, Minnesota) is a pitcher in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization.
Mahon grew up in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where he was a three-sport athlete at Como Park Senior High School, lettering in basketball, football and baseball. Despite gaining serious interest from many Big Ten schools to play football, such as Purdue, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, Mahon ultimately chose to play baseball for the University of Minnesota. He graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Communications in 2006 and went undrafted in the MLB draft.
Despite a sub-par collegiate career, Mahon's 95 mph fastball was enough to earn him a shot with the Arizona Diamondbacks, who signed him shortly after he graduated from the University of Minnesota in 2006. He quickly advanced in the organization, reaching the triple-A level in 2008. In 2009, Mahon was invited to spring training with the Arizona Diamondbacks as a non-roster invitee before being reassigned to minor league camp. Due to an early season injury, Mahon was assigned to the Diamondbacks' double-A club before being called up to AAA on July 5, 2009.
