The Diamondbacks outrighted Vieira to Triple-A Reno on Aug. 2.

Though Vieira remains a member of Arizona's organization after clearing waivers earlier this month, he has yet to pitch for Reno since being cast off the 40-man roster. Reno placed him on its restricted list Aug. 9 for unspecified reasons.

The Diamondbacks outrighted Jacques to Triple-A Reno on July 30.

Jacques ended up sticking around in the Arizona organization after he cleared waivers upon being designated for assignment July 26. Since reporting back to Reno on Aug. 3, Jacques has given up five runs (three earned) while striking out seven across five innings over five relief outings.

The Diamondbacks outrighted Hughes to Triple-A Reno on Aug. 2.

Arizona previously optioned Hughes to Triple-A on June 29, only to move him off the 40-man roster entirely just over a month later. Since being sent back to Reno in late June, Hughes has accrued a 1.26 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 17:4 K:BB over 14.1 innings.

The Diamondbacks outrighted Castellanos to Triple-A Reno on Friday.

As expected, Castellanos cleared waivers after Arizona designated him for assignment Aug. 11. Since he had been previously outrighted, Castellanos could have elected free agency, but he'll instead stick around in the organization with the hope of earning a call-up to Arizona later on this season. Castellanos worked out of the bullpen for his seven appearances with the big club earlier in 2024 but has been a regular member of the rotation at Reno, with whom he's compiled a 4.39 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 67.2 innings over 15 outings (14 starts).

Treinen (hip) made a rehab appearance for Double-A Tulsa on Saturday, retiring all three batters he faced via strikeout.

Treinen landed on the 15-day injured list Aug. 5 with left hip discomfort, but after turning in a dominant rehab appearance over the weekend, he looks on track to return to the Dodgers bullpen when first eligible Tuesday. Before he was deactivated, Treinen had turned in a 2.67 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 38:9 K:BB over 30.1 innings for the big club while gathering five wins, nine holds and one save.

Walker (8-3) got the win over the Athletics on Sunday, allowing an unearned run on two hits and a walk while striking out five over two innings.

Walker entered in the bottom of the ninth looking to send the game to extras with the score tied 1-1. He successfully did so and then came back out for the bottom of the 10th with a 4-1 lead after the Giants tacked on three. Walker found himself in a jam with the bases loaded and nobody out and struck out three batters in a row to seal the deal. He's now put together eight straight outings without giving up an earned run and has piled up three holds, a win and a save while posting a 14:2 K:BB over that span. For the year, Walker owns an impressive 2.10 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 79:15 K:BB in 64.1 innings.

Suter (shoulder) will need at least three rehab outings before being activated off the 15-day injured list, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Suter had a successful throwing session Friday and is expected to begin a rehab assignment this week. He's ahead of the original projected return from a partial tear of the left teres major muscle.

Martinez (5-4) was tagged with Sunday's 8-7 extra-innings loss to Tampa Bay. He allowed one unearned run on one hit, two walks and a hit batsman while striking out two over 1.1 innings.

Martinez, who had saves in three of his previous five appearances, was bypassed in the bottom of the 10th with Arizona up by a run. Instead, manager Torey Lovullo rolled with Kevin Ginkel, who was the pitcher of record and allowed the Rays to tie the game. Martinez pitched the the next two frames, wriggling out of a bases-loaded jam in the 11th before ceding the winning run in the 12th. This was the second consecutive appearance in which Martinez was charged with a walk-off loss.

Ginkel allowed one unearned run on two hits and struck out two over 1.1 innings in Sunday's 8-7 extra-innings loss to the Rays.

Ginkel was the pitcher of record when Arizona took a 7-6 lead in the top half of the 10th inning -- the Diamondbacks scored six combined runs in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings to force extra innings. He was unable to hold the lead and spoiled what would have been a dramatic comeback win. It's unclear why manager Torey Lovullo didn't go with a rested Justin Martinez, who has been given the bulk of save opportunities since Paul Sewald was removed as the team's closer.

Iglesias picked up the save over the Angels on Sunday, tossing a perfect ninth inning while striking out one.

Iglesias was called upon to protect a two-run lead in the ninth and did so without any trouble. He struck out Kevin Pillar to begin the frame before retiring the last two batters on easy groundouts. Iglesias has now recorded 18 straight saves since his last blown opportunity May 3. He hasn't allowed an earned run since June 16. The 34-year-old owns a 1.51 ERA, 0.65 WHIP and 46:8 K:BB in 47.2 innings and is tied for sixth in baseball with 26 saves.
