"The Diamondbacks are bringing Joe Saunders back after all.

In a surprise move, Saunders agreed to return on a one-year, $6 million contract on Tuesday, a deal that rounds out the Diamondbacks rotation and bumps their payroll up into the $80 million range.

Saunders was non-tendered in December when the Diamondbacks decided they didn't want him back at the roughly $8 million-$9 million he would have earned in arbitration."
