Fielding grounders, throwing Manager Torey Lovullo said Saturday that Perdomo (knee) has been fielding live ground balls and has also resumed throwing, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Perdomo still has yet to resume hitting, as the Diamondbacks are going to take a cautious approach with his rehab just three weeks removed from knee surgery. The 24-year-old infielder remains without a definite return timeline, but Lovullo noted he is encouraged by the progress Perdomo has made so far.

Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo to have surgery to repair torn meniscus in right knee
Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo will have surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right kneeAPRIL 7 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Lands on 10-day IL The Diamondbacks placed Perdomo (knee) on the 10-day injured list Sunday.
Impact As expected, Perdomo was deactivated after Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reported earlier Sunday that the shortstop was diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee. Perdomo will need surgery and is expected to miss at least one month, with a firmer target date set to come into focus once he's cleared to resume baseball activities. Arizona selected Kevin Newman's contract from Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move to add depth to the middle infield in the interim, but rookie Blaze Alexander may be the top candidate to replace Perdomo as the Diamondbacks' everyday shortstop.

Out with torn meniscus Perdomo was diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee Sunday and will require surgery, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republicreports.
Impact The 24-year-old hasn't seen the field since Wednesday due to the injury and is now expected to be sidelined for at least the next month. Perdomo should officially move to the injured list shortly. Blaze Alexander appears set to fill in at shortstop for Arizona, though veteran Kevin Newman is also expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A Reno.

Officially day-to-day Manager Torey Lovullo said after Wednesday's loss that Perdomo is day-to-day with knee discomfort, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Perdomo injured his knee rounding first base after reaching on an error during the bottom of the 10th inning. The team doesn't seem to be very concerned about his injury, and having a scheduled day off Thursday may allow Perdomo to play again Friday against Atlanta without missing any games.

Exits with injury Perdomo was removed from Wednesday's game against the Yankees with an apparent knee injury, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Perdomo reached base on an error during the bottom of the 10th inning but was limping as he ran toward second base. The Diamondbacks will take Perdomo into the clubhouse for a closer look and should have more information on his status after Wednesday's contest.

Tests on knee are negative Perdomo took grounders Saturday after imaging on his left knee came back negative, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Perdomo hurt his knee earlier this week on a slide during Cactus League play, but he's managed to avoid a serious injury.

Ends skid Perdomo went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Giants.
Impact Perdomo's second-inning double must have felt good. It was the shortstop's first hit since Sept. 7, a span of 25 at-bats without one. He's the strongside of a platoon with rookie Jordan Lawlar, both of whom are struggling during September. Perdomo is batting .119 (5-for-42) and Lawlar is at .150 (3-for-20) for the month.

Not in Sunday's lineup Perdomo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Impact Perdomo is in the midst of a 0-for-22 slump and will take a seat after starting the previous three games. Rookie Jordan Lawlar will handle shortstop and bat ninth.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Takes seat Wednesday Perdomo is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Mets.
Impact Jordan Lawlar will start at shortstop and Emmanuel Rivera (shoulder) is back in action at third base. Perdomo has batted just .115 with a .439 OPS in 35 plate appearances since the calendar flipped to September.

Heads to bench Monday Perdomo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.
Impact Even though the Diamondbacks recently released short-side platoon mate Nick Ahmed, Perdomo still looks as though he'll frequently hit the bench when Arizona faces southpaws. With lefty Jose Quintana on the hill for the Mets, the switch-hitting Perdomo will give way to the righty-hitting Emmanuel Rivera at third base.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Enters for injured Marte Perdomo entered Saturday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Cubs for an injured Ketel Marte (knee), played second base, and walked in his lone plate appearance.
Impact Marte was hit by a pitch in the first inning but stayed in the game until the seventh when the knee stiffened on him. Perdomo is expected to return to the starting lineup Sunday and could play either middle infield position. Both Marte and shortstop Jordan Lawlar (hand) were hit by pitches and are considered day-to-day heading into the series finale.

Not starting against lefty Perdomo isn't in Arizona's lineup Saturday against the Cubs.
Impact Perdomo will take a seat Saturday with southpaw Justin Steele on the mound for Chicago. Emmanuel Rivera will fill in at the hot corner and bat eighth while Perdomo rests.
SEPTEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Starts at third base Perdomo started at third base and went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Cubs.
Impact Perdomo shifted from his normal shortstop position to make his second start of the season at third base, as shortstop prospect Jordan Lawlar was promoted and made his MLB debut. The switch-hitting Perdomo's been the primary starter at shortstop against right-handers, but that changed Thursday with the arrival of Lawlar. If the Diamondbacks continue to align as they did Thursday, then it's likely Perdomo will qualify as a corner infielder next season. In addition to two starts at the hot corner, he's also played parts of 11 other games at third base, either when he started at another position or entered a game late.
SEPTEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting versus lefty Perdomo is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Rockies.
Impact Nick Ahmed will start at shortstop and bat eighth as the Diamondbacks go righty-heavy against left-hander Kyle Freeland. Perdomo has posted a solid .779 OPS versus righties this season, but he carries a .609 OPS versus lefties.
