Beaty went 4-for-6 with a home run, seven RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 16-4 win over Milwaukee.

Beaty opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before scoring on AJ Pollock's grand slam. In the second inning, Beaty added a grand slam of his own. He also hit a two-RBI single in the fourth and scored on a Gavin Lux single in the eighth. The 28-year-old Beaty has been limited to a part-time role this season. He has one home run, 11 RBI and five runs scored across 36 plate appearances after Sunday's big day at the dish.

Cabrera is not in the lineup Sunday against the Rockies.

Cabrera has an .846 OPS over his past 11 games and will take a seat for Sunday's series finale. Eduardo Escobar will start at third base while Josh VanMeter works at the keystone for the Diamondbacks.

Cron is not in the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Danielle Allentuck of The Denver Gazette reports.

The 31-year-old will take a seat for the first time since April 11, as he's posted a 1.018 OPS with four homers, 12 RBI and 11 runs over the past 16 games. Matt Adams will receive the start at first base for the Rockies in Cron's absence.

Bell is not in the lineup Sunday against the Marlins, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Bell went 2-for-4 with a double and four RBI in his first multi-hit game of the season Saturday, but he'll take a seat for the series finale with lefty Trevor Rogers on the mound for Miami. Ryan Zimmerman will start at first base and bat cleanup Sunday for the Nationals.

Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Goldschmidt will head to the bench for only the second time in 28 games this season in what amounts to a maintenance day following a busy Saturday night in which he went 3-for-4 with an RBI single, a double, a walk and four runs. Matt Carpenter will fill in at first base for Goldschmidt, who is batting .234 with three home runs, one steal, 18 runs and 15 RBI across 114 plate appearances.

Bohm went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Mets.

His sixth-inning shot off Taijuan Walker knotted the game at 4-4, but the Phillies couldn't find another run. Bohm is heating up at the plate, going 6-for-15 (.400) over the last four games to raise his slash line on the season to .229/.264/.354 with three homers, two steals, 11 runs and 15 RBI through 27 contests.

Walker (oblique) played five innings in a game Friday at Arizona's alternate site, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Walker came out of the session feeling good, per manager Torey Lovullo, who added the injured first baseman was scheduled to play seven innings Saturday. The Diamondbacks are hoping to have Walker back during the team's upcoming road trip that begins Tuesday.

Bell went 2-for-4 with a double and four RBI during Saturday's 7-2 win over the Marlins.

The 28-year-old was 1-for-22 over the previous six games, but he delivered twice with RISP to power the offense Saturday. Bell has a .140/.219/.298 slash line with two homers, two doubles, nine RBI and 12 runs through 16 games this season.

Hiura will sit for the fourth straight game Saturday against the Dodgers.

Hiura simply hasn't earned regular at-bats this season. His .167/.268/292 line wouldn't be close to good enough for a middle infielder, and it looks even worse now that he's primarily a first baseman. Daniel Vogelbach will make his fourth straight start at the position, though he's hitting just .184/.273/.327 himself.

Walker (oblique) could appear in games at the alternate site this weekend, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Along with Walker, outfielder Tim Locastro (finger) could participate in alternate-site games this weekend, That means both players could potentially return before or during the Diamondbacks' upcoming road trip that begins Tuesday in Miami. Their returns would reshape the lineup, impacting the opportunities for Nick Heath, Josh Rojas and Pavin Smith.
