The Diamondbacks recalled Waldschmidt from Triple-A Reno on Thursday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
Waldschmidt will make his return to the big leagues after being optioned on June 15. In his last 15 games in Triple-A, the 23-year-old slugged just .192/.250/.269 with no homers and one RBI. With Jordan Lawlar (hamstring) on the 10-day IL and likely facing a 4-to-6 week absence, Waldschmidt could have a decent path to playing time in center field. In order to make room on the active roster for Waldschmidt, Arizona designated Pavin Smith for assignment.
