D-Backs and Davis make a deal.

The Arizona Diamondbacks came to a deal on Thursday night with southpaw, Doug Davis. Davis, along with pitcher Dana Eveland and outfielder Dave Krynzel, was part of a six-player deal with Brewers in November in exchange for catcher Johnny Estrada, pitcher Claudio Vargas and reliever Greg Aquino. He asked for $7.5 million from the D-Backs but they only offered him $5.25 million in return, which is still a great increase from what he made the previous year, $3.6 million. Davis will fill the No. 4 spot in the rotation behind 2006 National League Cy Young Award winner Brandon Webb, Randy Johnson and Livan Hernandez.
