The Arizona Diamondbacks ' organization got a bit emptier on Friday.

It's the time of year when veterans who meet certain criteria can elect to head to minor league free agency rather than sticking in an organization.

For the Diamondbacks, a dozen players chose that route.

The whole list, via MLB Trade Rumors:

Ildemaro Vargas

James McCann

Jalen Beeks

Austin Pope

John Curtiss

Casey Kelly

Kyle Nelson

Connor Kaiser

Matt Mervis

Christian Pache

Matt Foster

Tristin English

Vargas is a versatile infielder who could see interest in free agency.

McCann remains a veteran catching presence who will certainly get a contract somewhere if he wants t continue his career.
