Diamondbacks' Anthony DeSclafani: Works in relief after activation
Anthony DeSclafani (thumb) has made a lone relief appearance since being activated from the 15-day injured list Sunday, covering three innings and allowing four earned runs on four hits and no walks while striking out two in Monday's 11-5 loss to the Giants.DeSclafani had briefly served as the Arizona Diamondbacks' No. 5 starter prior to landing on the injured list Aug. 13 due to right thumb inflammation, but Arizona has opted to keep Nabil Crismatt in the rotation over DeSclafani since the latter pitcher's activation. After the 35-year-old righty was lit up in his first relief outing upon returning from the IL, he's unlikely to garner consideration for a spot start over the final two weeks of the regular season unless an injury forces Arizona to alter its rotation.

Diamondbacks' Anthony DeSclafani: Activated from IL
The Arizona Diamondbacks activated Anthony DeSclafani (thumb) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.DeSclafani has been on the shelf since mid-August with right thumb inflammation, and he threw 30 pitches in his most recent bullpen session.

Considering the number of pitches he threw in the bullpen session and Nabil Crismatt's recent success, DeSclafani could be moved to the bullpen. However, a six-man rotation remains a possibility. Reliever Bryce Jarvis was optioned to Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move.

Diamondbacks' Anthony DeSclafani: Fares well in short outing
Anthony DeSclafani allowed three hits and struck out four batters over 4.1 scoreless innings in a no-decision against San Diego on Wednesday.DeSclafani jumped into the Arizona Diamondbacks' rotation at the beginning of August and struggled in his subsequent start, giving up four runs over 2.1 frames. He was much better Wednesday, limiting the Padres to three hits and no runs. DeSclafani threw 71 pitches (50 strikes) in the appearance, so he doesn't appear to be ready to handle a full starter's workload quite yet. Nonetheless, the right-hander may have earned himself the opportunity to continue being a part of Arizona's rotation. If that's the case, his next start is lined up to come against Texas on the road.

Diamondbacks' Anthony DeSclafani: Receiving another start
Anthony DeSclafani is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Padres at Chase Field.After working out of the bullpen in each of his previous three appearances, DeSclafani joined the Arizona rotation this past weekend as a replacement for Merrill Kelly, who was shipped to the Rangers ahead of the trade deadline. While making his first start for Arizona since July 6 on Friday in Sacramento, DeSclafani was dealt a loss while giving up four earned runs on five hits and three walks over 2.1 innings against the Athletics. Despite the rough showing, DeSclafani will get at least one more chance to solidify his spot in the Arizona rotation. Another poor outing, however, could prompt the Arizona Diamondbacks to go in a different direction with their No. 5 starter.
