Diamondbacks' Blake Walston: Faces hitters
Walston (elbow) threw live batting practice Friday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.
Walston touched 94 miles per hour during the session, a very encouraging sign considering he hovered between 91 and 92 miles per hour during his three appearances this season. The 23-year-old southpaw is expected to be activated from the injured list sometime in August but may not have a spot on the 26-man roster. It's unclear how far along Walston is in being stretched out for a starter's workload.

Diamondbacks' Eduardo Rodriguez: Throws sim game
Rodriguez (shoulder) threw two innings in a simulated game Friday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Rodriguez began throwing off a mound July 9, and Friday marks the first time he has pitched in a simulated game. He's slated to throw another bullpen session Monday and could be closing in on a rehab assignment, though the Diamondbacks have yet to confirm any plans for a stint in the minors.

Diamondbacks' Merrill Kelly: Throws sim game
Kelly (shoulder) threw two innings of a simulated game Thursday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Kelly tossed his first simulated game since being placed on the injured list in late April with a strained right shoulder. The 35-year-old is slated to throw again Sunday and looks to be nearing a minor-league rehab assignment. Kelly has only made four starts this season, and will likely require multiple rehab starts before being cleared.

Diamondbacks' Joe Jacques: Designated for assignment
The Diamondbacks designated Jacques for assignment Thursday.
The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for A.J. Puk, who was acquired via trade from the Marlins. Jacques permitted two runs over 1.1 innings in his lone appearance with Arizona this season.

Diamondbacks' A.J. Puk: Heading to Arizona
The Diamondbacks acquired Puk from the Marlins in exchange for Deyvison De Los Santos and Andrew Pintar on Thursday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Puk has been dominant as a reliever this season, posting a 2.08 ERA and 0.76 WHIP with a 33:6 K:BB in 30.1 innings after he began the year in the rotation and posted a 9.22 ERA in four starts. He'll provide needed fortification to the back of the Diamondbacks bullpen, as closer Paul Sewald has struggled for much of July. Puk seems likely to start out in more of a setup role but could be a factor for saves, especially if Sewald is unable to get back on track.

Diamondbacks' Christian Walker: Goes deep in win
Walker went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Royals.
Walker launched a solo shot off Michael Wacha in the top of the fourth, going back-to-back with Joc Pederson to give Arizona a 3-1 lead. It was the first baseman's 23rd long ball of the campaign and his first since July 4 against the Dodgers. Walker has also driven in at least one run in the last two games, bringing his RBI total up to 17 in the month of July.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Homers in third straight
Marte went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Royals.
Marte singled in his first trip to the plate and later added a three-run shot in the top of the ninth to extend Arizona's lead, giving him his third straight game with a home run. He's also recorded multiple hits and at least two RBI in three straight games, boosting his average to .296 on the season. In the month of July, the second baseman is batting .338 with five homers, 15 RBI and 13 runs scored.

Diamondbacks' Ryne Nelson: Struggles in no-decision
Nelson did not factor into the decision in a win over the Royals on Wednesday, allowing four runs on nine hits and two walks over six innings while striking out two.
Nelson got knocked around throughout the contest, allowing multiple baserunners in five of his six innings of work. Three of the four runs he was charged with came across in the fourth after the right-hander surrendered a leadoff double to Michael Massey to open the frame before allowing him to advance to third on a wild pitch. Nelson had not permitted more than three runs in any of his previous four starts this month, while his two strikeouts marked his lowest total since June 20 against Washington. He still holds a 2.97 ERA in July after Wednesday's start and hasn't suffered a loss since June 26 against Minnesota.

Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Delivers late in win
Moreno entered Wednesday's game as a pinch hitter and finished 1-for-2 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in an 8-6 win over the Royals.
Moreno, who pinch hit for starting catcher Jose Herrera in the seventh inning, delivered a big two-run double in the top of the ninth inning to erase the Royals' lead. He's been productive coming out of the break, going 6-for-17 with five RBI and three runs scored over five games.

Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez: Power surge continues
Suarez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-6 win over Kansas City.
Suarez's second-inning blast gave Arizona an early lead and was the first of four Diamondback home runs. He's doing his best to put a season-long slump behind him; Suarez entered the month of July with six home runs and has hit that many over the last 14 games. During that span, he's knocked in 17 runs with a .692 slugging percentage and 1.014 OPS.

Diamondbacks' Lourdes Gurriel: Resting Wednesday
Gurriel isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Wednesday's game versus Kansas City, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
Gurriel went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base during Tuesday's victory, and he'll now take a seat to begin Wednesday's contest against Michael Wacha and the Royals. Jake McCarthy will fill the open spot in left field while batting fifth.

Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Idle Wednesday
Moreno isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
After going 1-for-4 with two RBI during Tuesday's victory, Moreno will get a breather Wednesday. Jose Herrera will start behind the plate instead while batting ninth.

Diamondbacks' Alek Thomas: Enters late, steals base
Thomas entered Tuesday's game as a pinch runner and recorded a steal in a 6-2 win over Kansas City.
Thomas ran for Lourdes Gurriel in the eighth, and his stolen base produced a run when Freddy Fermin committed a throwing error while attempting to throw him out. The steal was Thomas' second in four games and third of the season. Thomas, who was held out of the starting lineup against a right-hander, finished the game in center field.

Gurriel went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Royals.
Gurriel is 4-for-22 over five games since the All-Star break, with none of those hits going for extra bases. He also hasn't generated an RBI in that span. The outfielder hit a stellar .318 with eight extra-base hits and 14 RBI over the 21 contests leading into the break. For the year, he's at a .259/.289/.407 slash line with five steals, 13 home runs, 56 RBI, 45 runs scored, 15 doubles and a triple over 93 games.
