Ahmed went 1-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and a run scored during Sunday's win over the Padres.

Ahmed recorded his third home run and drove in his tenth and eleventh run of the season with a two-run blast in the fourth inning. Prior to Sunday's home run, he'd been struggling through a 0-for-17 stretch at the dish. Ahmed will look to turn his performance at the plate around during the Diamondbacks' upcoming series with the Phillies.

Owings will start in right field and bat fifth Sunday against the Padres.

Owings sat out the series opener Friday after exiting early a night earlier against the Padres following his collision with teammate A.J. Pollock. The utility man escaped with only a contusion on his head, so the Diamondbacks cleared Owings to start in Saturday's 6-2 win. Owings went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and was caught stealing in the contest, with his activity on the basepaths in particular suggesting that his injury wasn't anything worrisome.

Arcia (ankle) expects to be at 100 percent health in time for Tuesday's game against the Royals, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Arcia was able to run the bases and participate in fielding drills Sunday with minimal pain, so he expects to be fully ready come Tuesday. Eric Sogard is starting at shortstop Sunday in his absence.

Rojas is not in the lineup Sunday against the Brewers, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

Rojas entered the Marlins' series against the Brewers hitting .299, but after going 0-for-11 over the past three days, his season average sits at a pedestrian .256. He'll head to the bench for the first time this season with Yadiel Rivera filling in at shortstop.

Arcia (ankle) is not in the lineup Sunday against the Marlins.

Arcia will now miss his second straight game after tweaking his ankle Friday against the Marlins. The Brewers haven't ruled out a trip to the disabled list for their shortstop, but with a scheduled off day Monday, the hope is that Arcia will be able to return to the lineup Tuesday in Kansas City. Eric Sogard will again draw the start at shortstop Sunday.

DeJong went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer Saturday against the Reds.

With one out in the bottom of the second, the young shortstop deposited the second pitch he saw into the left-field stands, pushing his home run total to six. DeJong is hitting .250 on the season, but his nice power showing has his OPS up to a solid .850 mark.

Arcia (ankle) will be reassessed before the team travels to Kansas City on Tuesday to determine whether or not he'll need to head to the disabled list, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Arcia sprained his ankle while returning to first base after a single Friday and was out of the lineup Saturday. If he needs to miss more than a few games, he'll likely head to the DL, with Eric Sogard continuing to fill in at shortstop.

Arcia (ankle) is not in the lineup Saturday against the Marlins.

Arcia left Friday's game with a right ankle injury, and while X-rays were negative, he'll miss at least one game. Eric Sogard will get the start at shortstop in his place.

Owings (head) is in the lineup Saturday against the Padres.

Owings missed a pair of games after suffering a head contusion Thursday against the Giants. He's good to go Saturday and will hit fifth while playing right field.

Camargo will make his first start of the year Saturday against the Mets.

Camargo was on the bench for his first three games since returning from an oblique injury. Ryan Flaherty has posted a 165 wRC+ as the primary third baseman in Camargo's absence, a figure more than double his career wRC+ of 78. Camargo could retake the starting role when Flaherty's numbers fall back to earth.
