Cole Sulser - DFA'd by Snakes The Diamondbacks designated Sulser for assignment Tuesday.

Impact Sulser surrendered one run on two hits during his first appearance since returning from the 60-day injured list, and he'll now once again be taken off Arizona's 40-man roster. Given the lack of success Sulser has had at all levels since 2022, it's possible he clears waivers and is sent outright to Triple-A Reno.

Diego Castillo - Optioned to Reno The Diamondbacks optioned Castillo to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

Impact A day after coming up from the minors, Castillo will head right back to Triple-A after going 0-for-1 during Monday's contest. Castillo holds an impressive .892 OPS in Reno this season, so there's a good chance he returns to Arizona later this summer if he continues to produce.

Joe Mantiply - Recalled from Reno The Diamondbacks recalled Mantiply from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Mantiply has taken a major step back this season, accumulating a 5.74 ERA and 1.09 WHIP through 15.2 innings in the majors this season (2.85 ERA in 2022). He hasn't fared well in Triple-A either, but he'll still be called upon to provide Arizona's bullpen with a fresh arm. Peter Strzelecki, who was acquired in a trade with the Brewers on Tuesday, was optioned in a corresponding move.

Tommy Pham - Traded to Arizona Arizona acquired Pham in a trade from the Mets on Tuesday, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.

Impact The sell-off in Queens continues. Pham inked a one-year, $6 million contract with the Mets over the winter and had slashed .268/.348/.472 with 10 homers and 11 steals through 79 games (264 plate appearances) this season. He can help out in the corner outfield and also cycle in at designated hitter as the Diamondbacks look to make the playoffs for the first time since 2017.

Peter Strzelecki - Dealt to Arizona Strzelecki was traded from the Brewers to the Diamondbacks on Tuesday in exchange for Andrew Chafin, John Gamdaboro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Phoenix reports.

Impact Strzelecki has a 3.69 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 77 strikeouts in 70.2 career MLB innings, but he has split time between the majors and Triple-A each of the last two seasons. He could work in the middle innings for Arizona over the rest of the season.

Emmanuel Rivera - Knocks in run Rivera started at third base and went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over San Francisco.

Impact Rivera's 10th-inning single gave the Diamondbacks a brief lead before the Giants scored in the bottom of the frame. It was his sixth straight game with hit; he's 8-for-20 during the streak. A series of moves over the last few days impacts third base going forward. After placing Evan Longoria (back) on the injured list Saturday, Arizona traded infielder Josh Rojas to Seattle then acquired infielder Jace Peterson from Athletics. Peterson is essentially a Rojas replacement -- a left-handed bat that plays second and third base -- and could emerge as a platoon mate of Rivera.

Ketel Marte - Plates game winning run Marte went 1-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the Giants.

Impact Marte did not get the ball out of the infield in first four at-bats, but he salvaged the night with a run-scoring double in the top of the 11th inning to plate the game-winning run. He's hit safely in 10 of the last 11 games, going 17-for-43 (.395) with a double, three triples, two home runs, six RBI, seven walks and seven runs scored.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. - Shows life in bat Gurriel went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Monday's 4-3 extra innings win over San Francisco.

Impact Gurriel's sixth-inning double knotted the game at 2-2, setting up the extra innings. The two hits was the most life seen in his bat over the last two weeks. The outfielder/DH entered the contest on a 3-for-42 (.071) run over the previous 11 games.

He had gone four contests without an RBI entering Monday before plating the Diamondbacks' opening run in the sixth inning. The outfielder is slashing .281/.360/.538 with 21 home runs, 58 RBI, 77 runs scored, 21 doubles and five triples over 102 contests.
