Carson Kelly - Closing in on rehab assignmentKelly (forearm) is expected to report to a minor-league affiliate Thursday to begin a rehab assignment, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.

ImpactKelly was cleared to begin participating in simulated games at extended spring training last week, but he now appears set to get some at-bats in an uncontrolled setting. The veteran catcher has been sidelined since fracturing his right forearm in a March 20 Cactus League game and will likely need an extended rehab assignment to regain his timing at the plate and to show the Diamondbacks that he isn't hampered when it comes to throwing out would-be base stealers. Once activated, Kelly will likely settle in as the top backup to Gabriel Moreno, who has fared well during his first season with the Diamondbacks.

Kristian Robinson - Reinstated from restricted listRobinson was reinstated from the restricted list and optioned to Low-A Visalia by the Diamondbacks on Monday.

ImpactRobinson hasn't played in any games since 2019 after pleading guilty in August 2021 to assaulting a law officer in April 2020. He recently completed an 18-month probationary period without incident and is also apparently not recovered from a recent hamstring injury. Robinson has been viewed as a top-100 prospect in the past and is still just 22, but he'll need to re-establish himself following all the missed time.
