Triple-A Indianapolis transferred Gorski from its 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Friday while he recovers from an undisclosed injury.

Gorski hasn't played for Indianapolis since May 23, so his move to the 60-day IL ensures that he'll remain on the shelf through the All-Star break. Before getting shut down at Indianapolis, Gorski got the chance to make his big-league debut with the Pirates earlier this season. The 27-year-old slashed .195/.214/.390 with two home runs in 42 plate appearances for Pittsburgh before he was optioned to Triple-A on May 17.

Morlando (hamstring) was activated from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

Morlando landed on the shelf May 5 after suffering a hamstring strain. He's appeared in three games since being activated Thursday, going 2-for-10 with one home run, two RBI, one stolen base and three runs scored for Single-A Jupiter.

Double-A Altoona reinstated Reed (back) from its 60-day injured list Thursday and assigned him to High-A Greensboro.

Reed is likely to make his Double-A debut at some point later in 2025, but he'll stick around in the rotation at Greensboro for the time being after he was shelved for the first two months of the season with a back injury. He began a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League on May 20, and after making two starts, he moved up to Single-A Bradenton. Reed made one start with Bradenton before heading to High-A, where he's posted a 2.19 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 9:9 K:BB in 12.1 innings through three starts.

Naylor was removed from Monday's game against the White Sox due to right shoulder discomfort.

Naylor will presumably be re-evaluated Tuesday as the Diamondbacks determine his status for the second game of the series. Pavin Smith, Tim Tawa or Ildemaro Vargas could see time at first base if Naylor is forced to miss additional action.

Naylor was removed from Monday's game against the White Sox due to an apparent shoulder injury, Casey Drottar of MLB.com reports.

Naylor appeared to grab at his right shoulder following an awkward swing during his at-bat in the top of the second inning, per Drottar, though he managed to remain in the game until the bottom of the fourth. Tim Tawa took over for Naylor at first base. The 28-year-old is presumably headed to the clubhouse for further evaluation.

Suarez was removed from Monday's game against the White Sox due to a right hand contusion.

X-rays on Suarez's right hand returned negative after he was struck by a fastball in the first inning. The club will keep a close eye on the slugger over the next few days to determine when he can return to play, but it's a reassuring sign that Suarez has seemingly avoided any structural damage.

Suarez (hand) exited Monday's contest against the White Sox in the bottom of the first inning, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Suarez was hit in the right hand by a 95.9 mph fastball from Shane Smith in the top of the first inning, momentarily remaining in the game after he looked to be in a great deal of pain. The 33-year-old removed himself from the contest before taking the field on defense in the bottom of the frame. More information on Suarez will likely be provided in the near future, while Ildemaro Vargas replaced him at third base in the meantime.

Bruns (back) was activated from the 60-day injured list June 15.

Bruns has made two starts for High-A Great Lakes since his return from a back injury, allowing two runs on four hits and five walks while striking out six over 5.1 innings. It seems the club is content to bring him along slowly in his first few appearances, as he hasn't worked more than three innings yet.

Amaya (oblique) has started a hitting program, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Amaya began a throwing program June 15, and he has now started to do work from the plate as well. Manager Craig Counsell said Monday that the team is targeting a return for the catcher around the All-Star break. Amaya has been on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique injury since May 24, but he appears to be on the cusp of launching a minor-league rehab assignment.

Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Boyd (shoulder) is "all good" for his next scheduled start Wednesday in St. Louis, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Boyd was removed from his most recent outing Friday against the Mariners with a bruised left shoulder after being struck by a comebacker. However, Boyd got through his normal between-starts bullpen session without any hiccups and shouldn't be operating with any restrictions in his upcoming outing against the Cardinals.
