    • Staying with D-backs
      Herrera will become Arizona's backup catcher after the team designated Tucker Barnhart for assignment Sunday, Arizona Sports reports.

      Advice: Herrera will serve as the backup to Gabriel Moreno (thumb), who is expected to be activated ahead of Tuesday's series-opener against the Dodgers. Herrera has not been impactful on offense over parts of three seasons with the Diamondbacks, posting a combined OPS of .497. Rotowire.com Today, 4:24 am
       
    • Expected back this week
      Moreno (thumb) is expected to be activated ahead of a three-game series against the Dodgers beginning Tuesday, Arizona Sports reports.

      Advice: The Diamondbacks designated Tucker Barnhart on Sunday, which indicates Moreno should be ready to go Tuesday after catching in a rehab game at the Arizona Complex League over the weekend. With Barnhart designated, the Diamondbacks will roll with Jose Herrera as the backup catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 4:16 am
       
    • Two hits in return
      Diaz went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored Sunday against the White Sox.

      Advice: Diaz was activated from the injured list after three weeks and returned to serve as the designated hitter while hitting fifth. He collected a hit in his first plate appearance, showing no signs of rust. Diaz's return will likely push Jacob Stallings into a backup role and could end consistent playing time for Hunter Goodman.

    • Running and throwing
      Caratini (hip) has resumed running and throwing while rehabbing in Houston, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: This is the first report of Cartini resuming baseball activity since he landed on the injured list June 21. He's expected to join the Astros for their weekend series against Minnesota, and it's anticipated he'll participate in batting practice at that time. Though this is positive news, Cartini is still expected to be sidelined through the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:41 pm
       
    • Extends hitting streak to 10
      Diaz went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored and an RBI on Sunday against the Mets.

      Advice: Diaz was productive throughout the game, though his biggest contribution came in the 11th inning when he kept a rally going that resulted in five runs. He extended his hitting streak to 10 games with the effort, which has been highlighted by four three-hit performances. In that span, Diaz has hit .429 with eight RBI and 10 runs scored.

    • Raps out three hits
      Pages went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Reds.

      Advice: Pages' playing time predictably took a nosedive when Willson Contreras returned from a forearm injury Monday. Pages went 12-for-50 (.240) in June, and if he continues to hit well in a backup role, he may stay on the major-league roster once Ivan Herrera (back) returns from the injured list. Pages is slashing .191/.260/.324 with two home runs, one stolen base, nine RBI and nine runs scored over 77 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:12 pm
       
    • Logs three hits in loss
      Naylor went 3-for-4 with a double in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Royals.

      Advice: Naylor has a pair of three-hit efforts over his last five games, but he went 0-for-7 with a walk and three strikeouts in between those contests. The catcher has started to show a bit more life with the bat, hitting .286 (14-for-49) with eight extra-base hits over 16 contests in June, though he also struck out 15 times. Naylor's at a .207/.274/.335 slash line with four home runs, 17 RBI, 22 runs scored, one stolen base, nine doubles and one triple through 197 plate appearances this year. His playing time has rebounded after dipping in late May and early June, but Naylor will need to continue to make a good effort with David Fry around to poach starts behind the dish.

    • Drives in three runs
      Bailey went 2-for-5 with two doubles, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

      Advice: Bailey did most of his damage during the Giants' five-run fourth inning, knocking a two-run double and coming around to score. He later capped off his day with an RBI double in the eighth. He'd been stuck in a 4-for-25 (.160) slump over his previous eight games since his last multi-hit effort June 20. Bailey is now slashing .284/.353/.433 with 17 extra-base hits and 28 RBI through 59 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:08 pm
       
    • Tees off Sunday
      Kelly went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Angels.

      Advice: Kelly provided an offensive jolt with his fifth home run of the year from the fifth spot in the lineup, one spot behind fellow catcher Jake Rogers, who served as the DH. The two players continue to split time behind the plate, which limits the fantasy upside of both of them. Kelly has been the more effective offensive player overall, however, as he has a .711 OPS compared to a .609 mark for Rogers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:42 pm
