Diamondbacks reportedly give manager Torey Lovullo a 2-year extension after team fell just short of playoffs

Despite missing the postseason on the final day of the regular season, the Arizona Diamondbacks rewarded manager Torey Lovullo with a two-year contract extension. The new agreement aligns Lovullo's tenure with general manager Mike Hazen, following a campaign that featured a strong second-half push, a first-half record of 49-47, and an absence by star second baseman Ketel Marte due to behavioral issues and a knee injury.

The franchise will address the media during a scheduled press briefing later today.
