Mickey Moniak LF | COL
Rockies' Mickey Moniak: Goes on bereavement list
The Rockies placed Moniak (personal) on the bereavement list Saturday.
Moniak will be away from the team while tending to a personal matter. He can spend anywhere from 3-to-7 days on the bereavement list. In Moniak's absence, the Rockies replenished their outfield depth by recalling Sean Bouchard from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Corbin Burnes SP | ARI
Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: Moved to 60-day IL
The Diamondbacks transferred Burnes (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
The move allows the Diamondbacks to select Aramis Garcia's contract from Triple-A Reno. Burnes is set to undergo Tommy John surgery later this month, which will sideline him for the rest of the 2025 season and most, if not all, of 2026.

Cristian Mena SP | ARI
Diamondbacks' Cristian Mena: Lands on IL with shoulder injury
The Diamondbacks placed Mena on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a right shoulder strain.
Mena may have strained his right shoulder during Friday's suspended game against the Reds, when he gave up a walk and a solo home run while striking out one batter in one inning. Christian Montes De Oca has been appointed the 27th man for Saturday's contest, but it's unclear whether the Diamondbacks have another move in place to bolster their bullpen in the absence of Mena. Mena will undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury and establish an estimated timeline for his return.

Diamondbacks' Christian Montes De Oca: Serving as 27th man
Montes De Oca will serve as the 27th man for the Diamondbacks in Saturday's game against the Reds.
With Friday's suspended game being finished Saturday, Montes De Oca has been brought in to replenish the Diamondbacks' bullpen, and an appearance in Saturday's game would mark the 25-year-old right-hander's major-league debut. Montes De Oca has 4.07 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, two saves and a 26:6 K:BB across 24.1 innings with Triple-A Reno this season.

Aramis Garcia C | ARI
Diamondbacks' Aramis Garcia: Promoted to majors
The Diamondbacks selected Garcia's contract from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.
Garcia signed a minor-league contract with the Diamondbacks in November, and in Triple-A this season he is slashing .273/.417/.582 with 10 home runs and 20 RBI in 139 plate appearances. If Gabriel Moreno (hand) is on the shelf for an extended period of time, Garcia would likely serve as Arizona's backup catcher behind Jose Herrera.

Gabriel Moreno C | ARI
Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Not in Saturday's lineup
Moreno (hand) is not in the Diamondbacks' starting lineup against the Reds on Saturday.
Moreno took a wild pitch off his right hand in Friday's suspended game. The good news is that initial X-rays came back negative, but he will be out of the lineup for Saturday's contest while Jose Herrera serves behind home plate and bats ninth.

Corbin Carroll RF | ARI
Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Sitting again Saturday
Carroll is not in the Diamondbacks' starting lineup against the Reds on Saturday.
Carroll will ride the pine for a second consecutive game while Lourdes Gurriel, Alek Thomas and Randal Grichuk man the outfield for the Snakes on Saturday. Carroll has gone 9-for-51 (.176) with one steal, three doubles, four home runs and seven RBI since May 20.

Josh Naylor 1B | SEA
Diamondbacks' Josh Naylor: Back in lineup
Naylor (hand/shoulder) is serving as the designated hitter and batting cleanup against the Reds on Saturday.
Naylor was pulled from Thursday's game against Atlanta due to lingering shoulder and hand injuries. He didn't play Friday versus Cincinnati, but he's back in the lineup for Saturday's contest. Naylor is slashing .289/.345/.448 with nine steals, seven home runs and 39 RBI in 255 plate appearances this season.

Joe La Sorsa RP | BOS
Reds' Joe La Sorsa: Serving as 27th man
The Reds appointed La Sorsa as the 27th man for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.
With Friday's suspended game resuming Saturday, the Reds will replenish their bullpen by adding La Sorsa as their extra player. He has spent the entire 2025 season with Triple-A Louisville, where he has a 3.92 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 14:14 K:BB across 20.2 innings.

Brett Sullivan C | COL
Pirates' Brett Sullivan: Promoted to majors
The Pirates selected Sullivan's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday.
With Endy Rodriguez (elbow) placed on the 10-day injured list and Joey Bart still in the concussion protocol, Sullivan will be brought up to serve as the Pirates' backup catcher behind Henry Davis. Sullivan was acquired by the Pirates in April from the Padres, and he has a .211/.350/.324 with two steals, one home run and 10 RBI across 76 plate appearances with Indianapolis.
