Diamondbacks' Jose Fernandez: Notches steal
Fernandez went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
Fernandez has now started at third base in four consecutive games while Nolan Arenado is limited to serving as the designated hitter. Fernandez has gone 5-for-13 over those games, so he could end up hitting his way into a more permanent spot in the infield. For the year, he's batting .264 with a .672 OPS, three home runs, eight steals, 16 RBI, 25 runs scored and nine doubles over 193 plate appearances.

Diamondbacks' Tim Tawa: Gets on base three times in win
Tawa went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
Tawa recorded his fourth multi-hit effort over his last nine games. The utility man has been productive at the plate in August, batting .288 (21-for-73) this month while adding nine RBI and five steals over his last 19 contests. Overall, he's hitting .240 with a .687 OPS, seven home runs, seven steals, 30 RBI, 24 runs scored and 10 doubles across 72 games.

Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Posts steal in win
Moreno went 2-for-5 with one RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
The Diamondbacks showed no hesitation to run early in this contest, and even the catcher got involved. Moreno hadn't swiped a bag or even made an attempt to since June 12, a game that also came against the Reds. He's on a 14-game hitting streak, going 22-for-59 (.373) in that span. For the season, Moreno is batting .308 with an .854 OPS, 10 home runs, five steals, 63 RBI, 55 runs scored, 26 doubles and one triple over 100 contests. This is already a career year in most areas for Moreno, and he will tie his career high in steals if he records one more.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Closing in on 20 steals
Carroll went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
Carroll has two steals over three attempts over his last five games. The star outfielder is 18-for-21 on the basepaths this season. His numbers are mostly down across the board compared to last year -- Carroll is batting .248 with an .834 OPS, 18 home runs, 57 RBI, 80 runs scored, 27 doubles and 15 triples over 125 contests. He's been a little more consistent in August, batting .257 (18-for-70) with a 12:14 BB:K this month.

Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Racks up three hits in win
Perdomo went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
Perdomo has a multi-hit effort in each of Arizona's Friday games during August. Since he racked up four hits last Friday, he had gone just 1-for-17 at the plate over the following five games before breaking out of the slump with this effort. Perdomo is hitting .248 with a .733 OPS, nine home runs, 44 RBI, 61 runs scored, 18 doubles, six triples and 17 stolen bases over 124 contests.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Leads offense in win
Lawlar went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a third RBI and two total runs scored in Friday's 9-0 win over the Reds.
Lawlar had the Diamondbacks' lone homer in this blowout win. He had gone 0-for-10 with five strikeouts over three games after returning from a two-month absence due to a hamstring strain. Lawlar has the inside track for starts in center field, but that could change if he struggles to find consistency at the plate. He's batting .283 with a .790 OPS, two homers, seven RBI, eight runs scored, two doubles and four stolen bases over 16 contests in the majors this season.

Diamondbacks' Eduardo Rodriguez: Secures third straight win
Rodriguez (13-4) allowed four hits and two walks while striking out four over 5.2 shutout innings to earn the win over the Reds on Friday.
Rodriguez came up an out shy of a third straight quality start, but he has won three straight outings and five of his last six. This was the shortest of his six scoreless performances this season. Rodriguez is at a 2.61 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 110:49 K:BB through 155 innings over 26 starts. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Cubs.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Officially moved to IL
The Diamondbacks placed Marte on the 10-day injured list Thursday with left knee inflammation.
After being on the restricted list all week following his no-show for the team's series in Boston, Marte will now spend at least the next 10 days on the injured list. General manager Mike Hazen said earlier Thursday he expected Marte to rejoin the team following his trip to the IL, but it's unclear if that will be in 10 days or longer, as there's been no indication of the severity of Marte's inflammation. Ildemaro Vargas should continue to handle the bulk of the playing time at second base for Arizona while Marte is out.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Will be moved to 10-day IL
Marte (knee) will be placed on the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's series opener against the Reds, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen, manager Torey Lovullo and Marte's agent all met earlier Thursday, but Hazen declined to provide specifics on Marte's knee issue, only saying he expects Marte to rejoin the team following a stint on the injured list. How long that stint will be is the big question after Marte didn't show up for Arizona's series in Boston this week. Ildemaro Vargas figures to continue to see increased playing time in the middle infield while Marte is sidelined.

Diamondbacks' Santiago Espinal: Inks MiLB deal with Arizona
The Diamondbacks signed Espinal to a minor-league contract Thursday.
Espinal has been assigned to Triple-A Reno. The veteran infielder was released by the Rangers last month after he failed to earn a promotion to the big leagues following nearly four weeks with Texas' Triple-A affiliate. Espinal is joining his third organization of the 2026 season. He previously appeared in 36 games for the Dodgers, slashing .268/.276/.375 with four extra-base hits, seven RBI, five runs scored and a 1:8 BB:K across 60 trips to the plate.

Diamondbacks' Lars Nootbaar: Makes impact off bench
Nootbaar entered Wednesday's game as a pinch hitter and went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in a 7-6 extra-inning victory over the Red Sox.
Nootbaar stepped in for Jordan Lawlar in the sixth inning and took Greg Weissert deep to give Arizona a 5-2 lead. It was Nootbaar's first homer since being acquired by the Diamondbacks at the trade deadline. The former Cardinal entered the game having gone 5-for-35 (.143) with one RBI over the previous 11 contests in an Arizona uniform.

Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Delivers run in return
Arenado went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 7-6 extra-inning win over Boston.
Arenado's bloop single plated the first of two runs in the decisive 10th inning to secure the win for the Diamondbacks and helped snap a three-game losing skid. The third baseman, who returned to the lineup after missing two games due to an intercostal injury, recorded his fourth multi-hit effort over the last seven games. Arenado is 8-for-27 (.296) with one triple, three home runs, nine RBI and two additional runs during the stretch.

Diamondbacks' Brandon Pfaadt: Gives up five runs in no-decision
Pfaadt didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing five runs on seven hits over 5.2 innings. He struck out eight.
Pfaadt's eight strikeouts marked a new season high, though he was hurt by the home-run ball Wednesday -- the righty gave up solo shots to Nick Sogard and Jarren Duran before Mickey Gasper added a three-run blast in the sixth inning. Prior to Wednesday, Pfaadt had gone four straight outings without allowing an earned run, posting a 0.69 WHIP across 27.2 innings in that span. His ERA now sits at 3.39 across 98.1 innings this season with a 1.14 WHIP and 69:24 K:BB. Pfaadt's currently in line to face the Cubs at home his next time out.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: GM noncommittal on return this season
Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen was noncommittal Wednesday when asked on the Wolf and Luke Show on 98.7 FM whether Marte (knee/personal) will return this season, Jody Jackson of DBacks.tv reports.
Marte was placed on the restricted list Monday after not showing up to Fenway Park for the Diamondbacks' game against the Red Sox as he tended to a personal matter. The second baseman has since flown back to Arizona, where he was scheduled to undergo an MRI on his left knee. He sat out Saturday's contest due to knee soreness but returned to the lineup Sunday. Hazen plans to meet with Marte face-to-face Thursday, and there could be more clarity on the 32-year-old's status after that meeting. The Diamondbacks begin a homestand Friday versus the Reds.

Diamondbacks' Max Kepler: Sitting against lefty again
Kepler is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
The Diamondbacks will keep the left-handed-hitting Kepler on the bench for a third straight game while the Red Sox have sent left-handed starters to the bump for all three contests of the series. Kepler could also be in danger of losing out on playing time against righties, as the recent return of Jordan Lawlar from the 10-day injured list leaves one fewer spot in the lineup available.

Diamondbacks' Lars Nootbaar: Idle against southpaw Wednesday
Nootbaar is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
The left-handed-hitting Nootbaar will wind up sitting for a second straight contest while the Red Sox send another southpaw (Payton Tolle) to the bump. Nootbaar is slashing just .143/.244/.229 over 41 plate appearances versus lefties this season.

Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Making return to lineup Wednesday
Arenado (intercostal) will be included in the Diamondbacks lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports. He'll start at designated hitter and bat fifth.
Arenado sat out the Diamondbacks' first two games in Boston after he exited Sunday's 5-3 loss to Atlanta due to left side discomfort. Per MLB.com, a follow-up MRI revealed a "small signal" in his left intercostal, but Arenado looks like he'll be able to play through the injury after a couple of days of rest. Arenado had been running hot at the plate prior to suffering the injury, slashing .240/.333/.640 with six home runs, one stolen base, 12 RBI and nine runs through his first 14 games of August.
