San Francisco had reportedly been a favorite to sign Burnes, who grew up in Bakersfield and attended Saint Mary’s College in Moraga. Burnes, winner of the 2021 NL Cy Young Award, will join right-handers Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly on the Diamondbacks, a divisional rival who led all of baseball in runs last season.

Corbin Burnes and the Arizona Diamondbacks have agreed to a $210 million, six-year contract, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press late Friday night.
