The Diamondbacks placed Thompson on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right scapular strain.

Thompson delivered a scoreless frame in his most recent relief appearance in Friday's 9-3 loss to the Royals, but he may have sustained the shoulder injury at some point along the way. The right-hander will be eligible for reinstatement shortly after the end of the All-Star break, but he's without an official timeline for a return.

Hoskins is expected to be placed on the 10-day injured list Monday after an MRI on his left thumb revealed a Grade 2 sprain, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Hoskins exited Saturday's 4-2 loss to Miami after sustaining the thumb injury while applying a tag on the Marlins' Eric Wagaman, though he was able to remain in the game after the play. While the Brewers quickly ruled out a thumb fracture, Hoskins still ended up sitting out Sunday's 3-1 win while he awaited the results of his MRI, which brought unfavorable news. The Brewers haven't yet offered up a timeline for Hoskins' return, but he'll be out through at least the All-Star break. Jake Bauers drew the start at first base in Hoskins' stead, but Andrew Vaughn could be called up from Triple-A Nashville to take over as the Brewers' primary option at the position while Hoskins is on the mend.

Stott went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer and a pair of walks in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Reds.

Stott's homer, his sixth of the season, proved to be the decisive blow in the win -- the second baseman drove a two-strike pitch from Tony Santillan 405 feet over the right-field fence to put the Phillies ahead in the eighth inning. The 27-year-old Stott had been slumping coming into the day, going just 2-for-20 over his previous six contests. Overall, he's slashing .238/.310/.340 with 37 runs scored, 37 RBI and 13 stolen bases across 327 plate appearances this year.

The Diamondbacks recalled Jarvis from Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

The right-hander has spent the past few weeks with Reno but will rejoin the big club after Ryan Thompson (shoulder) was placed on the injured list. Jarvis has a 6.10 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB over 10.1 innings with Arizona this season.

Burns did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Phillies, allowing a run on two hits and four walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out seven.

While Burns couldn't make it out of the fifth inning after throwing 91 pitches, it was certainly an encouraging outing for the rookie right-hander after he allowed seven runs (five earned) while recording just one out in his last start against the Red Sox. The 22-year-old Burns sports an 8.10 ERA with a 1.90 WHIP through his first 10 major-league innings, though he's averaged an impressive 13.5 K/9. Burns is currently lined up for a more favorable home matchup with the Rockies his next time out.

Wheeler (9-3) earned the win Sunday in a complete game against the Reds, allowing one run on one hit. He struck out 12.

It was a dominant performance from Wheeler in his fifth career complete game. The right-hander allowed just one hit, an Austin Hays homer to lead off the fifth inning. Wheeler hasn't allowed an earned run in his last four starts (28 innings) while logging 38 strikeouts in that span. His ERA is down to 2.17 through 18 starts (116 innings) with a stellar 0.84 WHIP and 148 strikeouts. Wheeler is currently scheduled to face the Padres on the road next week in what'll likely be his final outing before the All-Star break.

Gurriel is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Arizona will go with a starting outfield of Jake McCarthy, Alek Thomas and Corbin Carroll from left to right while Gurriel receives his first day off since June 22. Gurriel had started in each of the last 12 games, batting .224 with two home runs, one stolen base, six RBI and six runs during that stretch.

Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Smith will take a seat for the series finale after he started behind the plate Friday and Saturday. Dalton Rushing will get the nod at catcher Sunday.

The Diamondbacks recalled Henry (elbow) from Triple-A Reno and placed him to the 60-day injured list Sunday.

According to Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com, Arizona manager Torey Lovullo relayed Sunday that Henry recently underwent Tommy John surgery, which included both internal bracing and ligament repair. After injuring his elbow in mid-June, Henry went on Reno's IL, but the Diamondbacks needed to add him back to the big-league roster in order to free up a spot on the 40-man roster. Henry will miss the rest of the season and will also be sidelined for at least the first half of the 2026 campaign.

The Dodgers optioned Little to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

The Dodgers sent Little back to the minors to clear room on the 26-man active roster for right-hander Emmet Sheehan, who was recalled from Oklahoma City to start Sunday against the Astros. Little has served as a middle-relief option over his two stints in the big leagues this season, making two appearances while giving up two earned runs over three innings.
