  • Moving closer to return
    Stefanic (quadriceps) has been taking ground balls and batting practice, and he is scheduled to resume running progression Tuesday, per MLB.com.

    Advice: Stefanic landed on the injured list March 28 after straining his left quad in his first Cactus League contest in late February. The 28-year-old's progress toward a return was slowed by a setback mid-March, but he appears to be back on the road to recovery. Stefanic could feasibly be ready to resume game action by the end of April, though he will likely need a minor-league rehab assignment given that he logged only one plate appearance in spring training.

  • To IL with shoulder injury
    The Diamondbacks placed Castro on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to April 21, with right shoulder inflammation.

    Advice: Castro will undergo an MRI on his right shoulder Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports. The reliever was dealing with discomfort for a bit, but it seems to have gradually gotten worse. He surrendered two runs on four hits across one inning during his last appearance Saturday. The 29-year-old is eligible to return May 7 against the Reds. In a corresponding move, Andrew Saalfrank was recalled from Triple-A Reno. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
     
  • Restarting rehab assignment
    Garrett (shoulder) threw a 25-pitch side session Tuesday and is scheduled to pick up his rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Jacksonville, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: The left-hander is ready to resume his rehab assignment after a bout of dead arm slowed the progress in his return from a pinched nerve in his left shoulder. Garrett threw 86 pitches in his previous rehab outing April 12 and is scheduled to throw about 60 pitches or four innings Friday. The 26-year-old seems likely to require an additional rehab start after Friday before making his season debut for Miami. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
     
  • Corbin Carroll sitting Tuesday against southpaw
    Corbin Carroll is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s contest against the Cardinals

    Advice: It’s a routine off day for Carroll on Tuesday night with lefty Steven Matz toeing the rubber for the Cardinals. He’s gotten off to an excruciatingly-slow start this season with a calamitous .593 OPS with one homer and eight steals in 108 plate appearances through 23 contests. It’s only a matter of time before the 23-year-old fantasy superstar heats up at the dish, but it’s undeniable that he’s struggling at the moment. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
     
  • Called up Tuesday
    The Diamondbacks recalled Saalfrank from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

    Advice: The left-hander missed out on Arizona's Opening Day roster but will join the big club Tuesday as Miguel Castro (shoulder) moves to the injured list. Saalfrank made his MLB debut with 10 relief appearances last season and didn't allow an earned run over 10.1 innings. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
