Tommy Henry - Dominates Rockies in win Henry (3-1) hurled seven scoreless innings in a win over the Rockies on Wednesday while allowing just two hits and walking two. He struck out seven.
Impact Henry put together the best start of his young MLB career Wednesday evening. It was just the second time in 16 career starts he's managed to go seven innings and he also tied his career-high with seven strikeouts. The 25-year-old has notoriously struggled with his control, but he credited his command after the game as a big reason for his successful outing. Wednesday was also his first start without giving up a home run since May 6. Henry now sits at a 3.73 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 25:16 K:BB over 41 innings and lines up for a favorable start against the Nationals next week.

Ketel Marte - Swipes bag in win Marte went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Rockies.
Impact Marte singled in the first inning but then later reached on a fielder's choice in the sixth and stole second. It was his second steal over the last three games and his sixth of the year, which is already his highest mark since he had 10 in 2019. The 29-year-old has recorded at least one hit in 23-of-26 games he played in during May and is currently riding a 10-game hit streak dating back to May 20. For the year, Marte's slashing .279/.336/.475 with eight homers, 22 RBI, 31 runs and a 15:36 BB:K over 226 plate appearances.

Jake McCarthy - Adds another steal McCarthy went 2-for-4 with a stolen bag and a run scored in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Rockies.
Impact McCarthy singled to lead off the second and wasted no time stealing second for his fifth stolen base over the last three games. The 25-year-old has also notched six hits over that same span and has not struck out. He looks much more comfortable at the plate since being called back up from Triple-A Reno and should continue to be a great option for steals if he can continue to find ways to get on base.

Christian Walker - Snaps HR drought Walker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Rockies.
Impact Walker's fifth-inning blast was his 12th and snapped an 11-game stretch without going deep. The last two weeks have been a grind for the Diamondbacks' primary first basemen; Walker is 7-for-45 (.156) with a .491 OPS over the last 12 games.
JUNE 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Pavin Smith - Reaches base five times Smith went 2-for-2 with three walks, a double, one RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 6-0 win over Colorado.
Impact Smith finally looked like a leadoff hitter Wednesday, reaching base five times. That equaled the number of times he reached base safely over the previous eight contests as Arizona's leadoff batter. In nine games atop the order, Smith is 5-for-29 with five walks. The lefty hitter should be back there once again Thursday against Colorado right-hander Connor Seabold.

Pavin Smith - At leadoff again Wednesday Smith is hitting leadoff again Wednesday against the Rockies.
Impact Smith has batted just .212 with a .315 on-base percentage through 39 games (130 plate appearances) this season, but he's been at leadoff in each of his last four starts and seems to be the Diamondbacks' preferred option for that role against right-handed pitching. Colorado is throwing righty Dinelson Lamet on Wednesday.

Corbin Carroll - Homers, steal twice in win Carroll went 1-for-2 with a solo homer, a walk, two steals and two runs scored in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Rockies.
Impact Caroll first reached in the fourth after a leadoff walk and stole second and third before crossing the plate on a sacrifice fly. It was the fifth time this year he's stolen multiple bases in a game and now sits by himself in fifth with 16 steals. The 22-year-old also went long for the second time in three games after roping a solo shot to right off Kyle Freeland in the sixth. Caroll is slashing .346/.393/.692 with a 1.085 OPS over his last seven games but was still moved down to sixth in the batting order with a lefty on the mound Tuesday, which has been his most common spot in the lineup against a southpaw. It's unclear whether manager Torey Lovullo has any plans to move him up in the order against left-handers, but he's certainly proved himself thus far, slashing .309/.356/.455 over 60 plate appearances versus lefties this season.

Zac Gallen - Shuts out Rockies for win Gallen (7-2) shut out the Rockies over six innings to earn his seventh win of the season Tuesday. He allowed five hits and two walks while striking out seven.
Impact Gallen recorded shut out his opponent for the fifth time this year and his first time since April 26. He recorded 21 chases, and his seven strikeouts were tied for his highest mark this month. The 30-year-old has been absolutely dominant at home so far this season, recording a perfect 5-0 record to go with an 0.77 ERA, 0.66 WHIP, .158 opponent average and 47 strikeouts over five starts. For the year, he owns a sparkling 2.72 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and a82:16 K:BB over 72.2 innings. He's expected to end the week with a tough test against Atlanta, though it will be another home start.

Ketel Marte - Homers in return Marte went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-1 win over Colorado.
Impact Marte returned to the lineup after getting Monday off and wasted no time in extending his on-base streak to 28 games and hit streak to nine. He homered to lead off the home half of the first inning. The second baseman is 12-for-39 with three homers, one triple, five RBI, two steals and six runs scored during the nine-game hit streak.
MAY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joe Mantiply - Throws in bullpen Mantiply (hamstring) threw a 25-pitch bullpen session Tuesday.
Impact Mantiply was expected to throw a second session this week, but manager Torey Lovullo left open the option of the left-hander beginning a rehab assignment as the next step.
MAY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Evan Longoria - Provides power in win Longoria went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Rockies.
Impact Longoria's first-inning home run provided all the cushion starter Zac Gallen would need. It was the veteran third baseman's seventh homer in 92 at-bats. Longoria's part-time role -- starts at 3B or DH against lefties -- puts a cap on what he can offer fantasy managers.
MAY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jake McCarthy - Running again McCarthy went 2-for-3 with two stolen bases in Tuesday's 5-1 win over Colorado.
Impact McCarthy's two steals give him four over the last two games and five since he was recalled from Triple-A Reno. The outfielder, who stole 23 bases in 99 games last season, is 5-for-14 with a walk since rejoining the parent club.
