D'Arnaud is 11-for-26 (.423) with three doubles and a triple over the last seven games.

He has a hit in six of those seven contests. D'Arnaud also has seven walks versus just four strikeouts and two stolen bases during that time, but unfortunately it hasn't led to many runs. In the last seven games, d'Arnaud has two runs and zero RBI.

Crawford went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a walk and a run Wednesday against the Padres.

Crawford was decisive at the plate once again, and he provided the game-winning RBI with a single in the bottom of the 10th inning. With five RBI in the last two games and 21 over the month of May, the third baseman might be on the verge of breaking out despite going hitless in five of his last 11 games.

Ahmed is in the lineup Wednesday after taking a pitch to the jaw on Tuesday.

Ahmed left Tuesday's game, as did fellow middle infielder Jean Segura, who took a pitch to the head. While Segura will sit out at least Wednesday, Ahmed will get right back in there, starting at short and batting leadoff.

Story is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Red Sox.

After wearing the golden sombrero with an four-strikeout performance Tuesday night, manager Walt Weiss decided it was a good day to give his young shortstop some rest. Christhian Adames will slot into the lineup at shortstop to fill in for him.

Crawford went 2-for-3 with a walk, a triple, four RBI and scored a run in Tuesday's victory over the Padres.

Although the batting average appears to be stagnant, Crawford's slugging percentage has been on the rise this month. He's slugging .488 through 82 at-bats in May, more than 100 points higher than the .385 he posted in April. In addition, Crawford has amassed 20 RBI since May 1, most in the NL over that span.

Story went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts Tuesday against the Red Sox.

Story has been one of the biggest storylines this year, but it seems the league has beginning to adjust to him. The rookie shortstop has gone 2-for-16 after a seven-game hitting streak, and has struck out in 50 percent of his at-bats over that span.

Ahmed left Tuesday's game after getting hit by a pitch in the jaw.

The team will release more information after he undergoes tests. Jean Segura also left after getting hit in the head by Arquimedes Caminero, who had no idea where the ball was going during his mop-up work Tuesday, so the Diamondbacks could be stretched pretty thin if Ahmed and Segura have to miss a game or two.

Castro is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Brewers.

Castro will be replaced by Kelly Johnson at second base after struggling to get a hit in his past four games. His batting average and on-base percentage have dropped to .221 and .287, respectively.

D'Arnaud is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Brewers.

D'Arnaud has been getting a good amount of at-bats lately, playing in six of the Braves last eight games. He's slashing .361/.439/.528, but went without a hit during his last game against the Phillies. D'Arnaud will sit out Tuesday in favor of Gordon Beckham at third base and Erick Aybar at shortstop.

Rojas plated a pair of RBI as part of a 3-for-4 effort during Monday's win over the Rays.

Rojas also scored a pair of runs on the evening while making the start at second base for the Marlins. Batting .311/.360/.378 on the season, Rojas is sharing time with Derek Dietrich at second while Dee Gordon continues to serve a suspension. He's in the lineup against most left-handed starters, but offers very little in terms of power or speed for fantasy owners.
