Gott (forearm) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Gott sustained a right forearm strain in mid-August but was cleared to resume throwing later in the month. He spent the last week and a half on a rehab assignment and struck out five in 3.2 scoreless innings over three minor-league appearances. It's possible the right-hander serves as an occasional setup man down the stretch.

Hughes gave up a hit and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his sixth save of the season in a 2-1 win over the Marlins.

The rookie southpaw continues to look fairly comfortable in a high-leverage role. Over his last 16 appearances, Hughes has picked up a win, three holds and all six of his saves while posting a 3.18 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 17:4 K:BB through 17 innings.

Martin recorded his second save of the season in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.

Craig Kimbrel and Evan Phillips had both worked two straight days coming into Tuesday, so Martin got the call in the matinee when the Dodgers took a late lead after a five-run rally in the bottom of the eighth inning. The veteran right-hander has been scored upon only once in his last 14 appearances dating back to Aug. 15, posting a 1.32 ERA, 0.44 WHIP and dazzling 20:0 K:BB through 13.2 innings over that stretch while picking up a win, a hold and both his saves. With Blake Treinen (shoulder) and Brusdar Graterol (elbow) both potentially set to return before the end of the regular season, Martin could get squeezed out of any more high-leverage work despite his impressive recent efforts.

Jameson (2-0) picked up the win in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader split with the Dodgers, allowing two runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out seven.

After tossing seven shutout innings in his big-league debut last Thursday, Jameson delivered another quality start for Arizona in his encore. The 25-year-old righty tossed 62 of 94 pitches for strikes and extended his career-opening scoreless streak to 12.1 frames before Max Muncy touched him up for a two-run blast. Jameson had some issues keeping the ball in the park in the minors, but with two impressive outings out of the gate, he seems to be locking down a spot in the D-backs' Opening Day rotation in 2023.

Jackson was outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

He will remain in Atlanta's organization after getting designated for assignment last week. Jackson has logged 1.1 scoreless innings over two MLB appearances this year and has a 1.53 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 20 strikeouts in 17.2 innings at Triple-A.

Mantiply allowed three hits and three inherited runners to score while striking out two over one inning, picking up a blown save in a 6-5 loss to the Dodgers in first game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

Arizona's bullpen blew up in the eighth inning with Caleb Smith, Kevin Ginkel and Mantiply letting a 5-1 lead slip away. Mantiply entered with none out and the bases loaded -- an unpleasant task against MLB's best team. The left-hander also pitched in the second game of the doubleheader, notching his 21st hold in one-third of an inning, so it would appear manager Torey Lovullo still has confidence in Mantiply despite a shaky stretch during which he's pitched to an 8.00 ERA over 13 outings.

Ginkel (1-1) picked up the loss in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, allowing three runs (one earned) on two walks without retiring a batter.

The Diamondbacks held a 5-1 lead entering the eighth inning, but it all melted away as Caleb Smith, Ginkel and Joe Mantiply couldn't hold it. Smith departed after ceding a two-run home run before Ginkel, who was victimized by Josh Rojas' fielding error and his inability to locate (14 pitches, five strikes). Mantiply entered a bases-loaded, none-out situation and couldn't prevent the winning runs from scoring. The back end of Arizona's bullpen has been shaky, so manager Torey Lovullo has been using relievers other than Mark Melancon and Ian Kennedy with mixed results.

Hjelle allowed two runs on six hits and struck out three over four innings, but he did not factor in the decision during Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.

Hjelle pitched the fourth through seventh innings, but it was Tyler Rogers who was credited with the win in this one. It was still a positive outing for Hjelle on three days' rest, especially since it was at Coors Field. The right-hander has allowed nine runs in 10 innings since rejoining the big club earlier this month. He has an 8.44 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB through 16 innings across six appearances. It's not clear when Hjelle might pitch again, though he could continue to work as a bulk reliever behind an opener.

Garcia retired the only batter he faced to earn the save in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.

Yunior Marte put two batters on base in the ninth inning, but Garcia was able to get Ryan McMahon out to end the game. While he's filled a versatile role this year, this was Garcia's first save of the season and just the second of his big-league career. He's added four holds, two blown saves, a 1-4 record, a 3.19 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 50:17 K:BB through 59.1 innings. Closer Camilo Doval had pitched in each of the last two games, so this was likely a one-off save opportunity for Garcia.

Crowe (5-10) took the loss in Tuesday's 9-8 loss against the Yankees. He allowed five runs on four hits and one walk without recording an out.

Crowe entered the ninth inning with a healthy 8-4 lead but failed to record an out and suffered the loss. He allowed a solo home run off the bat of Aaron Judge to start the inning and then allowed the Yankees to load the bases for Giancarlo Stanton, who crushed a walkoff home run. The showing increased his ERA by more than half a run to 4.15 and is his third time allowing three or more runs in his last seven appearances.
