Settles for another no-decision Davies did not factor in the decision against San Francisco on Wednesday, pitching five innings and allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters.
Impact Davies was very effective in the contest, allowing just one run on a third-inning homer by LaMonte Wade Jr. Davies threw 45 of 82 pitches for strikes and registered his most punchouts since mid-June, but he got little run support and extended his stretch of outings without a win to 11. The inability to record a victory has been especially frustrating of late, as Davies has allowed just four runs over his past 15 innings.

Takes another no-decision Davies allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out two in five innings versus the Rockies on Friday. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact Davies still hasn't stretched out much -- Friday was his third start since returning from a shoulder injury, and he threw just 49 of 82 pitches for strikes in this contest. The right-hander allowed a two-run double to Elehuris Montero in the fourth inning and a solo home run to Brian Serven in the fifth, taking himself out of contention for the win when he left with the game tied. Davies has a 4.11 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 68:32 K:BB through 92 innings across 18 starts. He's allowed seven runs across 12 frames in his last three outings, and he'll look to be more efficient in a projected road start versus the Giants next week.

Solid in no-decision Davies allowed four hits and two walks while striking out three over five scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Sunday.
Impact Davies put in a solid performance in his second start back from a shoulder injury. He threw 49 of 80 pitches for strikes, but the Rockies weren't able to capitalize on his so-so command. It was a significant improvement after he allowed four runs in two innings in his previous start. The right-hander trimmed his ERA to 4.03 with a 1.22 WHIP and 66:30 K:BB through 87 innings across 17 starts this year. Davies is projected for a road rematch with the Rockies next week.

Early exit in return to rotation Davies didn't factor into the decision in Monday's 6-5 extra-innings loss to the Guardians, giving up four runs on three hits and two walks over two-plus innings. He struck out one...
Impact Two of the hits Davies allowed left the yard, including an Amed Rosario two-run blast to left-center field that chased the right-hander from the game with nobody out in the third inning. It was an inauspicious return to the rotation for Davies, who missed all of July with a shoulder issue, and he'll take a 4.28 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 63:28 K:BB through 82 innings into his next outing.

Activated for Monday start Davies (shoulder) was activated from the injured list Monday.
Impact It was reported Sunday that Davies would rejoin Arizona's rotation for the opener of their three-game set with the Guardians, and the team made the move official one day later. Davies will attempt to pick up where he left off after posting a 2.56 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in his previous five big-league starts.

Returning Monday Davies (shoulder) is starting Monday against the Guardians, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
Impact Davies spent just over a month on the injured list due to right shoulder inflammation, but he resumed mound work July 23 and faced live batters Tuesday at the Diamondbacks' spring training complex. Over his five starts prior to his absence, he posted a 2.56 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 31.2 innings.

Faces batters Davies (shoulder) faced live batters Tuesday at the Diamondbacks' spring training complex for the first time since suffering his injury.
Impact Davies had a progression of promising throwing sessions since July 19 and appears to be closing in on a return. His next outing has yet to be determined. It's unclear if the Diamondbacks intend to put him back in the rotation or continue experimenting with Tyler Gilbert and Corbin Martin.

Throws bullpen session Davies (shoulder) threw a 35-pitch bullpen session Friday, Theo Mackie of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact This was the second bullpen session of the week for Davies, who also threw a 20-pitch session Tuesday. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said the right-hander came out of Friday's session feeling "very good." Davies' next step will be to face live batters, although Lovullo did not provide a timeline for the pitcher's full return. Davies who has a 3.94 ERA over 15 starts, landed on the injured list June 28 with shoulder inflammation. Since his injury and another to Humberto Castellanos (elbow), the back end of Arizona's rotation has been wobbly.

Out with shoulder inflammation Davies was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right shoulder inflammation, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Davies presumably sustained the injury Saturday during his last start, when he gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits with two strikeouts and one walk over five innings. It's unclear exactly how long the 29-year-old is expected to be sidelined, though he'll be eligible to return from the injured list July 11.

Middling outing in no-decision Davies allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits and a walk with two strikeouts in five innings, taking a no-decision versus the Tigers on Saturday.
Impact It wasn't really a good or bad start, instead treading the line of average for Davies as his winless run extended to eight starts. The right-hander has been fairly sharp in June, allowing 10 runs (nine earned) across 31.2 innings across five outings. Overall, he's at a 3.94 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 62:26 K:BB through 80 innings in 15 starts. Davies is projected for an unforgiving road start in Colorado next week.

Gives up four runs in loss Davies (2-4) allowed four runs on four hits and three walks with three strikeouts in six innings, taking the loss Monday versus the Padres.
Impact Davies was spotted a one-run lead before he took the mound, but he gave it back on a Jake Cronenworth solo home run. The right-hander was also tagged for a two-run single by Ha-Seong Kim in the second and a solo shot from Trent Grisham in the fifth. Davies has alternated dominance with middling performances in his last five outings, going 0-2 in that span. He now has a 3.96 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 60:25 K:BB through 75 innings across 14 starts overall. He's projected for a home start versus the Tigers this weekend.
