First career save
Morillo picked up the save Tuesday against the Rangers, throwing a perfect ninth inning with no strikeouts.
Analysis
The Diamondbacks are still searching for a closer to replace Kevin Ginkel (shoulder), who was shut down for the season in early August. Morillo, a 26-year-old rookie who's bounced between the big leagues and Triple-A during 2025, appears to be in the running for the position. While he has a 4.76 ERA and 28:16 K:BB in 28.1 innings with Arizona this season, Tuesday's performance could have earned him some trust with manager Torey Lovullo. Morillo posted a 3.00 ERA in 15 innings with Triple-A Reno this year.

Recalled from Triple-A
The Diamondbacks recalled Morillo from Triple-A Reno on Monday.
Analysis
Morillo has made 31 appearances out of the Diamondbacks bullpen this season, posting a 4.94 ERA and 28:16 K:BB over 27.1 innings. The 26-year-old could work his way into high-leverage appearances as part of an unsettled bullpen, although he's unlikely to be in the mix for save chances right away.
