Moves to 60-day IL The Diamondbacks placed Walston (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Sunday.
Impact It was announced in mid-March that Walston will require Tommy John surgery, so it was only a matter of time before he was shifted to the 60-day IL. The left-hander will miss the entirety of this season and isn't likely to be back until midseason of the 2026 campaign.

Diamondbacks LHP Blake Walston to undergo Tommy John surgery
Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Blake Walston will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgeryMARCH 14 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Needs Tommy John surgery Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Walston will undergo Tommy John surgery, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact It's not clear when Walston was injured, but he missed time last season while at Triple-A Reno with an elbow issue. Because he's a starter and it's a full UCL repair, the left-hander will probably be sidelined until around midseason of next year.

Optioned to Triple-A The Diamondbacks optioned Walston to Triple-A Reno on Thursday.
Impact Since rejoining the D-backs' bullpen Sept. 15, Walston has surrendered eight runs (five earned) over just 5.2 innings while striking out seven batters and walking one. He and Yilber Diaz will end up as Arizona's roster casualties following the activation of Ryne Nelson (shoulder) and promotion of Alek Thomas, and the 23-year-old Walston likely won't make it back to the majors during the final series of the season this weekend.

Promoted Sunday The Diamondbacks recalled Walston from Triple-A Reno on Sunday.
Impact The left-hander was activated from the injured list in mid-August after missing two months due to an elbow issue, but he was immediately sent to Triple-A. Walston has started in two of his three appearances with Arizona this season, but he's likely to work in a long-relief role this time around.

Reinstated off IL, optioned to Reno The Diamondbacks reinstated Walston (elbow) from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Reno on Monday.
Impact With Eduardo Rodriguez and Merrill Kelly both returning from the IL, the Diamondbacks don't have an open spot on the rotation for Walston. For now, Walston will head down to Triple-A, but the 23-year-old southpaw should make his way back to the big club either as part of the rotation or in the bullpen. Prior to landing on the IL on June 6 due to left elbow inflammation, Walston registered a 2.84 ERA and 1.42 WHIP across 12.2 innings in three major-league appearances (two starts).

Makes first rehab start Walston (elbow) struck out five and allowed two hits and no walks over 3.2 innings in a rehab start for Triple-A Reno on Sunday.
Impact According to Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com, manager Torey Lovullo had previously said July 26 that the Diamondbacks were undecided on what Walston's role might look like upon the left-hander's return from the 15-day injured list, but Walston's usage Sunday implies that he'll be built back up as a starter. With Eduardo Rodriguez and Merrill Kelly both beating him back from the IL, the Diamondbacks don't have a rotation spot available for Walston at the moment, though the complexion of Arizona's pitching staff could change by the time Walston is ready for activation. Walston posted a 2.84 ERA and 11:9 K:BB across 12.2 innings in three outings (two starts) for Arizona before landing on the IL on June 6 with a left elbow strain.

Faces hitters Walston (elbow) threw live batting practice Friday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.
Impact 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.
