D-backs acquire Jeremy Hellickson in trade with Rays
 
Hellickson, a former Rookie of the Year and Gold Glove winner, had a rough injury-plagued last year and will be looking to get back to his form of his rookie season, 2011, when he was 13-10 with a 2.95 ERA.
Arizona has been seeking starting pitching, and this is new GM Dave Stewart's first major move.
