ImpactVillar was removed from Wednesday's game due to right hamstring tightness. It's not yet clear whether he could be available off the bench Thursday, but Brandon Drury will start at third base and bat sixth.

Asdrúbal Cabrera - Increases running intensityCabrera (hamstring) has been running at 70-80 percent recently, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.
ImpactCabrera has continued to take live at-bats recently, but he's also been able to increase his running intensity after he was only able to jog slowly out of the batter's box at the end of May. Manager Torey Lovullo called the 35-year-old's progress a "miracle" since his injury was initially believed to be quite serious. However, Cabrera still doesn't have a clear timetable to return.

Madison Bumgarner - Dealing with inflammationBumgarner's MRI on Thursday revealed left shoulder inflammation, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
ImpactBumgarner will be shut down from throwing for a few days, but manager Torey Lovullo is optimistic that the southpaw isn't facing a lengthy absence, and he said that he could avoid a trip to the injured list. The left-hander had been dealing with shoulder discomfort over the past couple weeks, but the issue doesn't appear to be a significant concern for now. However, it's not yet clear when Bumgarner could return to the mound.

David Peralta - Sits against lefty againPeralta is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers.
ImpactArizona will withhold two of their key lefty hitters from the lineup in Peralta and Pavin Smith with southpaw Brett Anderson on the bump for Milwaukee. Expect Peralta to check back into the starting nine Friday, when the Brewers are likely to bring right-hander Freddy Peralta to the hill.

Pavin Smith - Checks out of starting nineSmith is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers.
ImpactChristian Walker's recent return from the injured list and Josh Reddick's ongoing surge at the plate has made finding playing time for Smith more of a challenge of late, but the rookie still appears fairly secure in a near-everyday role. Though he'll sit Thursday, Smith has earned regular at-bats for an Arizona squad going nowhere by providing an .804 OPS while striking out in only 16.1 percent of his 218 plate appearances on the season.
