Yonny Hernandez - Sent to minorsThe Diamondbacks optioned Hernandez to Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

ImpactDuring his four-day stint with the big club, Hernandez appeared in three games and went 0-for-8 with a pair of strikeouts. The Diamondbacks replaced him on the active roster with third baseman Drew Ellis, who was called up from Reno and will get the start at the hot corner in Sunday's series finale with the Cubs while Josh Rojas (hand) rests.

Drew Ellis - Called up, starting SundayThe Diamondbacks called up Ellis from Triple-A Reno on Sunday. He'll start at third base and bat ninth in the Diamondbacks' series finale with the Cubs.

ImpactEllis joins the active roster as a replacement for infielder Yonny Hernandez, who was optioned to Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move. With top third baseman Josh Rojas (hand) getting the day off Sunday, Ellis will slot into the lineup right away, but don't expect Ellis to pick up regular playing time unless Rojas' hand injury requires a stint on the 10-day injured list.

David Peralta - Takes seat vs. leftyPeralta is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

ImpactWith southpaw Wade Miley on the mound for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Peralta will get a breather in the series finale. Jordan Luplow fills in for Peralta in left field.

Josh Rojas - Sitting out SundayRojas (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

ImpactThe lefty-hitting Rojas will sit out Sunday's series finale after suffering a bruised left hand in Saturday's 7-6 win, but it's unclear if the injury or the fact that southpaw Wade Miley is on the hill for Chicago is what's keeping him out of the lineup. Regardless, newly recalled Drew Ellis will fill in at third base for Rojas.

Ildemaro Vargas - Pushed off 40-man rosterThe Cubs designated Vargas for assignment Sunday.

ImpactVargas was deemed expendable with the Cubs needing a spot on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster for catcher P.J. Higgins, who was called up from Triple-A Iowa to provide a healthy option behind the plate while backstop Willson Contreras (hamstring) is day-to-day. During his nearly two-week stay with Chicago, Vargas appeared in 10 games and hit .130/.231/.348 over 26 plate appearances.
