Pena has hit safely in 13 straight games for Single-A St. Lucie, slashing .375/.444/.607 over that span with four doubles, three home runs, two steals, 11 RBI and 15 runs.

The 18-year-old shortstop is doing everything he can to earn a promotion to High-A Brooklyn before the end of 2026. Pena collected the first multi-homer game of his young pro career during that stretch, launching two solo shots against Jupiter on Tuesday. Per Max Ralph of MLB.com, Pena smoked three balls in that contest with exit velocities of 100 mph or greater.

Ramirez went 2-for-5 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.

Getting the start at DH and batting sixth, Ramirez lashed an RBI double in the third inning that chased Carmen Mlodzinski from the game, his first extra-base hit since returning to the majors early this month. Ramirez has made only three starts in eight games since his promotion, two at DH and one at catcher, but he's batting .357 (5-for-14) during that span. If he keeps producing when he gets the chance, the 24-year-old should see his playing time creep up. There could be more opportunities available in the 1B/DH mix as well with Kyle Stowers (hamstring) having landed on the IL on Tuesday.

Baldwin went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Mets.

All three hits were singles, but it was still another solid night for Baldwin, who's produced multiple knocks in four of his last eight games. The 25-year-old backstop hasn't homered since July 24, however, and over that 18-game drought he's batting .278 (20-for-72) with just two doubles and five RBI.

Williamson (shoulder) allowed two hits and one walk while striking out two over two innings Tuesday in a rehab start for Triple-A Louisville.

Williamson got up to 31 pitches before rain came and spelled an early end to his night. The Reds were targeting 60 pitches for the left-hander, who eventually completed two up-and-downs in the bullpen to reach 65 pitches, per MLB.com. Williamson is in line to make at least one more rehab appearance for Louisville on Sunday.

Sanchez went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI double in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to the Padres.

Sanchez opened the scoring in the second inning with a two-out, solo shot off Robbie Ray, his 10th long ball this season. Sanchez, who's gone 5-for-11 with two homers and two doubles in his last five games, got the start behind the plate Wednesday, though he's primarily been limited to starts against left-handed pitchers or pinch-hitting duties. Overall, Sanchez is slashing .230/.379/.473 across 206 plate appearances this year with 31 runs scored and 29 RBI.

Perdomo went 2-for-6 with a run scored in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Rockies.

Perdomo was back at shortstop and led off for the Diamondbacks after missing one game due to a knee issue. The multi-hit effort was his sixth in the last 12 contests, during which Perdomo is 18-for-48 (.375) with four extra-base hits (one home run), five RBI and six runs scored.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Wednesday that Lawlar (hamstring) could return from the 10-day injured list during their upcoming road trip that begins Friday in Atlanta, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Lawlar completed the seventh game of his rehab assignment with Double-A Amarillo on Wednesday, playing nine innings in center field while going 1-for-5 with a solo home run. He's now played nine-inning games on consecutive days, which is typically a sign of a player nearing activation. After the trip to Atlanta on Friday, the Diamondbacks move on to Boston for a three-game set beginning Monday.

Martinez (elbow) struck out two and over a perfect inning in a rehab appearance for Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

Martinez moved his rehab up from Single-A Visalia to Reno for the third appearance of his rehab. Between the two stops, the right-hander has struck out five and allowed no hits and one walk over three scoreless frames. Martinez is scheduled for at least one more appearance with Reno on Thursday, per Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com, but Martinez could be activated at some point during the team's road trip, which runs Friday through Wednesday.

Freeman said that he is "just sore" after suffering a number of minor injuries when he fell into the opposing dugout during the eighth inning of Wednesday's 4-2 win over Kansas City , David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports. Freeman added that he's hoping to play in Thursday's series opener against the Brewers.

In a scary incident, Freeman plunged into the dugout while tracking a pop-up into foul territory. Team trainer Thomas Albert said afterward that Freeman has a sore right hand, knee, foot and shoulder, but Freeman downplayed the injuries in his postgame interview. The first baseman seems like he'll lobby to play right away in Thursday's series opener in Los Angeles, though the Dodgers could err on the side of caution and give Freeman a day off if he's experiencing any lingering soreness leading up to game time.

Feduccia went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Royals.

Feduccia has gone 9-for-36 (.250) with a homer and four doubles over 16 games since the All-Star break. He's sharing the catching duties with Ben Rortvedt while Will Smith (neck) and Dalton Rushing (elbow) are sidelined. Feduccia and Rortvedt are likely competing for one spot on the roster once Smith is healthy. Overall, Feduccia is batting .237 with a .665 OPS, three homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored, eight doubles, one triple and no stolen bases over 176 plate appearances.
