Arizona Diamondbacks

[edit | edit source]

San Diego Padres

[edit | edit source]

In 2008, the Diamondbacks traded Scribner to the San Diego Padres in return for Tony Clark.[2][1] Following the 2010 season, he was added to the Padres' 40 man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[3]

On April 25, 2011, Scribner was called up to replace spot-starter Wade LeBlanc. He made his MLB debut the next day.[citation needed]

Oakland Athletics

[edit | edit source]

After the season, on October 25, 2011, he was claimed off waivers by the Oakland Athletics. Both of his wins on the season came in the last 9 games of the season. He received the win in the last game of the season against the Texas Rangers, this gave the Oakland A's the AL West division crown.[1]

Scribner made the A's Opening day roster for the 2013 season, beating out Pedro Figueroa and non-roster relievers Hideki Okajima and Mike Ekstrom. Scribner was recalled on August 3, 2013 in exchange for Tommy Milone.[4] He was recalled from the Triple-A Sacramento River Cats on August 28.

Scribner made the A's Opening day roster again in 2015, having developed a new pitch, he soon emerged as the setup man for Oakland with Tyler Clippard moving to the closer role as a result of 2014 closer Sean Doolittle being placed on the Disabled List with a Shoulder injury in early April.[5][6] Scribner's season ended prematurely due to a torn lat muscle, he was placed on the 60-day disabled list on September 2, 2015.[7]

Seattle Mariners

[edit | edit source]

On December 8, 2015, Scribner was traded by the Athletics to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for minor league pitcher Trey Cochran-Gill.[8] Scribner spent almost the entire 2016 season on the Disabled list but was activated on September 1 and made his Mariners debut on September 3 against the Los Angeles Angels.[9] Scribner was placed on waivers for his unconditional release from the Mariners on September 5, 2017.[10]
