Arroyo (foot) is playing shortstop and batting sixth in the lineup during Sunday's game against the Reds, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Arroyo was lifted from Saturday's game early after fouling a ball off his foot during an at-bat. It appears that injury wasn't anything serious as the promising 21-year-old is set to return to action Sunday. He's hitting .250 with three homers and six RBI through his first 48 at-bats.

Drury is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Though Drury has posted a solid .300 average early in the season, his playing time has been a bit spotty recently. After sitting out Thursday's contest, the second baseman will again head to the bench for Sunday's tilt against Tyler Chatwood and the Rockies. The 24-year-old will likely be back in the lineup Tuesday against the Tigers.

Arroyo was removed from Saturday's game after hitting a foul ball off his foot, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Arroyo wasn't removed from the game immediately, but he was seen walking back to the clubhouse with an athletic trainer. There's a decent likelihood that his removal was precautionary given how uncompetitive the game was at that time, but more details should emerge following the game's conclusion. Conor Gillaspie took over at the hot corner in his stead.

Urias, 19, is slashing .340/.429/.534 with two home runs, one stolen base and a 15:16 K:BB in 121 plate appearances with Double-A San Antonio.

He ranks sixth in the Texas League in total bases (55), and all five players who rank ahead of him are 22 or older, so it's extremely impressive what he is doing, given his age. His elite approach is well known, as is his hit tool, but what is most impressive is how he has added some power to his game, posting a .194 ISO after notching a .109 mark in the California League last year.

Adames was outrighted to Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday, the Associated Press reports.

The infielder will remain in the organization after clearing waivers following the Rockies' decision to designate him for assignment last Sunday. Adames went 0-for-13 at the dish while appearing in 12 games for the Rockies.

Arroyo went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in Friday's loss to the Reds.

Arroyo launched his third home run of the season to draw the Giants within two runs in a losing effort. Although the homers have provided a decent start to his season, the statistics in all of the other hitting categories make him a player who should be left on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.

Forsythe (hamstring) will resume his rehab following the weekend, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports Friday.

Forsythe still felt feeling hamstring tightness when he began his rehab Wednesday. He was expected to need three games and return over the weekend. Instead, if the Dodgers continue with the original three-game rehab plan, Forsythe will likely return late next week in Colorado. Forsythe had a nifty .295/.407/.341 batting line before his injury and will have a place in the Dodgers lineup upon his return.

Forsythe (toe/hamstring) won't be activated from the disabled list Friday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

Forsythe was pulled from Wednesday's rehab game after just one at-bat with hamstring tightness, so it isn't too surprising that he won't be activated Friday. It's unclear how long this latest ailment will set Forsythe back, though he was originally scheduled for three rehab games and only made it through one, so it could be a little while before he is back.

The Pirates haven't decided whether Frazier (hamstring) will go on a rehab stint prior to coming off the disabled list. He was initially expected to miss no more than 10 days, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

Head trainer Todd Tomczyk said Wednesday that Frazier has re-engaged back into baseball activity such as fielding groundballs, taking batting practice and running and jogging. "We are still in the early stages of seeing how his body responds to that," Tomczyk said. It's looking like Frazier could miss at least part of the weekend series against Milwaukee.

Drury is not in the Diamondbacks' Thursday lineup against the Nationals.

The infielder has finally started to show a bit of thump recently but won't get a chance to build on it against Washington's Max Scherzer. Daniel Descalso will take Drury's spot at second base Thursday.
