Nick Ahmed - Sitting WednesdayAhmed is not starting Wednesday's game against the Giants.
ImpactThe day off comes at a good time for Ahmed, who's hitless in three consecutive games and in six of his last eight. He has also failed to draw a walk in that stretch. Josh Rojas gets the start at shortstop Wednesday.

Christian Walker - Not starting WednesdayWalker is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.
ImpactHe receives a day off following a strong, 2-for-5 effort Tuesday with three RBI. It was Walker's third multi-hit showing in his last seven games, a stretch during which he's gone 7-for-25 with a homer, five RBI and just two strikeouts. Pavin Smith gets the start at first base Wednesday.

Carson Kelly - Not starting WednesdayKelly is on the bench for Wednesday's game against the Giants.
ImpactThe catcher has been a bright spot of late in the Diamondbacks lineup, going 5-for-13 with a homer, two doubles and three RBI in his last three games. Lefty-hitting Stephen Vogt starts behind the dish in a matchup against righty Anthony DeSclafani.

Zac Gallen - Will start ThursdayGallen (elbow) will be activated from the injured list and start Thursday's game against the Giants, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
ImpactGallen last pitched May 7 before being sidelined with a right UCL sprain. He was solid in four of his five early-season starts, but walks were a common theme for the righty, as he walked multiple batters in every outing and twice issued four free passes in a game. Even so, Gallen was an ace last season and will be welcomed back to the top of Arizona's struggling starting rotation.

Mike Tauchman - Not starting WednesdayTauchman is on the bench for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
ImpactThe 30-year-old will sit for the second straight, with LaMonte Wade being Wednesday's replacement in left field. Having gone 2-for-19 with no RBI in his last nine games, Tauchman could certainly benefit from a little time off.
