Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Diagnosed with Grade 1 strain
Rotowire
Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Lawlar is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and will be out for "weeks," Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Lawlar suffered the injury while playing for Triple-A Reno, and he will miss extended time. A previous report indicated Lawlar would be out for at least a month, and Lovullo's words seem to back up that assessment.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Lands on minor-league IL
Rotowire
Lawlar was placed on Triple-A Reno's 7-day injured list Thursday due to a hamstring injury, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Lawlar dealt with a hamstring issue last week into the beginning of this week, but he was back in Reno's lineup Wednesday. However, the talented young shortstop logged just one at-bat in his return before he was lifted, and he's now landed on the minor-league IL. Per Sommers, Lawlar will miss at least a month due to the injury, so he won't be back in action until late July, at the earliest.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Back in action at Triple-A
Rotowire
Lawlar (hamstring) will start at third base and bat second for Triple-A Reno in Wednesday's game against Salt Lake.
Lawlar has been out of action for Reno since last Thursday due to a sore hamstring, but he didn't require a stint on the injured list and is now back in action for the Triple-A club. The Diamondbacks are optimistic Eugenio Suarez (hand) will be able to avoid the 10-day injured list, but if he can't, Lawlar is an option to take his roster spot and get some playing time at the hot corner with the big club. Lawlar went hitless during his brief time in the majors in 2025 but boasts a .997 OPS with 10 home runs and 18 steals over 52 games with Reno.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Out at Triple-A with sore hamstring
Rotowire
Lawlar has been absent from Triple-A Reno's lineup for the past three games due to a sore hamstring, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
Lawlar has not been placed on the 7-day injured list, so Reno appears to be viewing him as day-to-day at this point. However, the injury could prevent Lawlar from being considered for a promotion in the event Eugenio Suarez's hand injury is worse than expected. Lawlar has gone 0-for-19 at the major-league level this season but boasts a .997 OPS with 10 home runs and 18 steals over 52 games with Reno.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Rolling since demotion
Rotowire
Lawlar has gone 18-for-63 (.286) with 10 extra-base hits, 14 RBI, five steals and 11 runs scored over 15 games since being sent back to Triple-A Reno. He's started at shortstop (nine starts), third base (five) and second base (one).
Lawlar had a rough go of it in the majors during a brief call-up in May, but he's overcome that disappointment and continued to produce at the Triple-A level. Lawlar has a .321/.411/.586 slash line with 19 doubles, four triples, 10 home runs, 45 RBI, 18 steals and 49 runs over 249 plate appearances for the Aces this season.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Producing in minors
Rotowire
Lawlar went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, a home run and four RBI for Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.
Lawlar, who returned to the minors after a hitless eight-game stretch in the majors in May, continues to have success at Reno. He went without a hit in his first game back with the Aces but is 5-for-9 with two extra-base hits and two walks in his last two contests. The Diamondbacks currently sit fourth in the NL West and four games back of the final playoff spot. There's potential for them to be sellers at the trade deadline, and if that happens, Lawlar could return and have an everyday role. Josh Naylor and Eugenio Suarez are both free agents at the end of the season.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Diamondbacks optioned Lawlar to Triple-A Reno on Thursday, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Phoenix reports.
Lawlar earned a promotion to the big leagues May 12 after slashing .336/.413/.579 through 173 plate appearances in Triple-A. However, he failed to record a hit over 19 at-bats at the MLB level and never had a clear path to playing time with the Diamondbacks, so he'll head back to the minors. Ildemaro Vargas signed a major-league contract with Arizona on Thursday and will fill Lawlar's place on the active roster.
Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Fills in at second base
Rotowire
Lawlar started at second base in place of Ketel Marte (illness) and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-6 loss to Pittsburgh.
Lawlar has now gone hitless with eight strikeouts in his 18 plate appearances since being called up from Triple-A Reno on May 12. He's had a tough go of it against off-speed offerings, particularly sliders, in a small sample size. The lack of steady playing time could be making it difficult for Lawlar to make adjustments, though he could get the chance to make a couple more starts if Marte's illness lingers for a few more days.
Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Hitless since call-up
Rotowire
Lawlar started at third base and went 0-for-2 with two strikeouts in Tuesday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Dodgers.
Lawlar made his first start at third base after making appearances at shortstop and second base. The prospect is hitless with one walk and seven strikeouts through 11 plate appearances since being called up from Triple-A Reno.
Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Enters mid-game at second base
Rotowire
Lawlar pinch hit for Ketel Marte (hip) and went 0-for-1 in Wednesday's 8-7 win over the Giants.
Lawlar finished up the game at second base for Marte, who was removed as a precaution with stiffness in his hip. This was Lawlar's second appearance since his call-up from Triple-A Reno; he served as the starting shortstop Tuesday. Marte is expected to play when the Diamondbacks resume their schedule Friday at home against the Rockies.
Arizona recalled Lawlar from Triple-A Reno prior to Monday's game against the Giants.
Arizona designated infielder/outfielder Garrett Hampson for assignment to open up a spot on the 26-man active roster for Lawlar, who is back in the big leagues for the first time since 2023. The 22-year-old hit just .129 over a 14-game sample with Arizona that season, then spent all of 2024 in the minors while missing considerable time due to a torn ligament in his thumb as well as a Grade 1 hamstring strain. Despite the injury-plagued season, Lawlar maintained his status as the Diamondbacks' top prospect, and he opened the 2025 campaign healthy and slashed .336/.413/.579 with six home runs and 13 steals in 37 games with Reno to push his way back onto the big-league roster. The Diamondbacks don't have an obvious everyday spot in the lineup available for Lawlar, but he's expected to pick up a handful of starts per week while rotating between second base, third base and shortstop after seeing time at all three positions with Reno this season.

Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Promotion imminent
Rotowire
The Diamondbacks are expected to recall Lawlar from Triple-A Reno ahead of Monday's series opener in San Francisco, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
Lawlar is hitting .336/.418/.579 at Reno while splitting time between second base, shortstop and third base. The Diamondbacks have solid incumbents at all three positions, including two (Ketel Marte and Geraldo Perdomo) that recently signed contract extensions. Piecoro speculates that Lawlar -- the Diamondbacks' top prospect -- will likely play around four times per week, allowing manager Torey Lovullo to give multiple other regulars on the team periodic days off.
