    • Gabriel Moreno (illness) scratched from lineup
      Gabriel Moreno was scratched from the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup on Saturday due to illness.

      Advice: The 24-year-old backstop was feeling a bit under the weather, so manager Torey Lovullo opted to give him the night off. He is expected to be available off the bench and should return to the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup on Sunday. Rotoworld 14 minutes ago

      Moreno (undisclosed) was scratched from the Diamondbacks' lineup prior to Saturday's game against the Padres.

    • Clubs second homer
      Moreno went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Padres.

      Advice: Moreno has gone 10-for-34 (.294) over his last 11 contests, hitting safely in nine of them. The homer was just his second of the year, as the catcher continues to struggle with generating power. Overall, he has a .242/.322/.344 slash line with 20 RBI, 19 runs scored, eight doubles, a triple and no stolen bases through 51 games. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:02 pm
       
    • Resting Wednesday
      Moreno is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: He'll be getting some routine maintenance after he caught nine innings and went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in the Diamondbacks' 8-5 win Tuesday night. Tucker Barnhart will draw the start behind the plate Wednesday while Moreno rests. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:16 am
       
    • Moves up in order
      Moreno batted second and went 1-for-4 in Monday's 4-2 win over the Giants.

      Advice: Arizona manager Torey Lovullo tweaked the lineup against a left-handed starter, dropping Corbin Carroll to eighth and moving Moreno up the order. The manager told Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports that Carroll is expected to slide down the order against lefties beyond Monday's game. The move is not a recognition of Moreno's hot bat -- he's batting .235 with a .643 OPS -- and is more about Carroll's struggles. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:29 am
       
    • Getting afternoon off
      Moreno is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Moreno will get some rest for the series finale after he started at catcher each of the past three days while going 2-for-12 with a double and two runs scored. Tucker Barnhart will step in behind the dish Sunday. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:56 am
