Riding pine versus lefty Perdomo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

Swats homer Sunday Perdomo went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Padres.

Impact Perdomo hasn't done well in August, as this was his first multi-hit effort of the month. He's gone 7-for-30 (.233) over his last 11 contests. The shortstop is still seeing a starting role against right-handers, but he's been at the bottom of the lineup in his last two games. Perdomo has a .270/.371/.405 slash line with six homers, 38 RBI, 50 runs scored and 13 stolen bases over 100 contests, but it's tough to see him rebounding well enough to bump Corbin Carroll out of the leadoff spot.

Corbin Carroll will serve as Arizona's tablesetter Wednesday against Los Angeles.

AUGUST 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting against lefty Perdomo isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers.

Impact The switch-hitting Perdomo has typically been held out of the lineup against southpaws this season, and the trend will continue for Tuesday's matchup against Julio Urias. Nick Ahmed will get the nod at shortstop and bat eighth.

AUGUST 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Enters for injured Marte Perdomo entered Sunday's game to play second base after Ketel Marte was removed due to a hamstring injury. Perdomo went 0-for-2 in a 5-3 loss to the Twins.

Impact Perdomo finished off the road trip, which was rough for both himself and the team. After an extra-inning win over San Francisco to begin the trip, Arizona lost the final six games. Perdomo went 4-for-27 (.148) with one walk.

He's at a solid .274/.380/.406 slash line with 13 steals, five home runs, 37 RBI and 48 runs scored over 91 contests this season. Perdomo continues to bat leadoff against right-handers while often sitting out versus southpaws in favor of Nick Ahmed.

Not in starting nine Perdomo will sit Saturday against Cincinnati, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.

Impact The switch-hitting shortstop has broke out to the tune of a .278/.385/.408 slash line (good for a 119 wRC+) this season, but the Diamondbacks have been hesitant to use him against lefties like Saturday's starter Brandon Williamson.

Heads to bench Sunday Perdomo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

JULY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Snaps out of funk Perdomo went 3-for-4 in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Toronto.

Impact Perdomo's three-hit effort came after a brutal stretch for the shortstop. He entered the game with just two hits over the previous 31 at-bats. The run of futility reached 32 at-bats before an infield single in the third inning. Much of those struggles came as Arizona's primary leadoff batter against right-handers; however, Perdomo maintains a respectable .274/.367/.310 line atop the order in 2023.

Adds another steal Perdomo went 0-for-2 with a walk, stolen base and run scored in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Pirates

Impact Perdomo and Christian Walker worked a double steal in the first inning, and he raced home after a throwing error from Pittsburgh catcher Austin Hedges. It was his second straight game with a steal and fourth in 19 contests since being elevated to leadoff.

Sits against lefty again Perdomo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

Impact The switch-hitting Perdomo is on the bench for the second game in a row, giving way to Nick Ahmed at shortstop on both occasions.
