Parker came away with a no-decision in Thursday's loss to the Marlins after he allowed two unearned runs on three hits and no walks over 6.1 innings. He struck out five.

Parker was fantastic Thursday, allowing only four baserunners and two unearned runs while pitching into the seventh inning for the seventh time this season. Parker has now recorded 11 quality starts in his rookie campaign, and five of those have come over his last eight starts. The 24-year-old hasn't missed a turn through the rotation since being called up in mid-April, and he's racked up 127 strikeouts with a 4.24 ERA over 142.1 innings.

McCaughan came away with the no-decision in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Nationals. He allowed three runs on six hits and two walks over five innings while striking out one.

McCaughan got off to a rough start, giving up three runs in the first inning before settling down and getting through the next four frames unscathed. McCaughan was making his third straight start and completed five innings for the first time this year. The 28-year-old has yet to strikeout more than four hitters in any of his eight appearances this season and carries a 7.06 ERA through 29.1 innings.

Wilson (oblique) will throw a bullpen session Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Wilson landed on the injured list Sept. 3 and his upcoming bullpen session will mark his first time throwing since. He should have a chance to return before the close of the regular season, barring a setback.

Lawlar (hamstring) was activated from the minor-league inured list Sept. 8, MLB.com reports.

Lawlar was sidelined in mid-June due a Grade 1 hamstring strain and an aggravation caused him to miss more time than expected. The 22-year-old is Arizona's top prospect, but he's been limited to only 15 games in a frustrating campaign and will now look to close the season strong.

Zastryzny (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

Zastryzny has been sidelined since July 26 with elbow tendinitis. He appeared to be closing in on a return but had his rehab assignment paused in late August. He'll be sidelined until at least Sept. 26 as a result of this move.

Peguero was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

Peguero has pitched nearly the entire season at the big-league level and maintained a solid 2.98 ERA across 51.1 frames. However, his 4.7 BB/9 has led to an inflated 1.54 WHIP. He'll head to the minors, though he would be a candidate to return to the majors if the Brewers require depth out of the bullpen later in the month.

Paredes (forearm) was reinstated from the injured list Thursday.

Paredes has been sidelined since July 2 with a forearm issue. Prior to the injury, he was excellent out of the Brewers bullpen, maintaining a 1.08 ERA and 1.02 WHIP across 16.2 innings, albeit with a more mediocre 12:8 K:BB. Paredes will likely pitch low-leverage roles initially, though he may have the chance to pick up some holds as he gets back into form.

Cecconi was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Thursday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Cecconi was recalled Sept. 1 and allowed seven earned runs over 3.2 innings while in the majors. Cecconi has bounced between Reno and Arizona several times this season, so it's possible that he could return to the big leagues in the final days of the regular season.

The Diamondbacks recalled Diaz from Triple-A Reno on Thursday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

Diaz had four starts for the Diamondbacks in July, and he notched a quality start in the first two. In the third game he surrendered seven earned runs across three innings, but he bounced back in his final outing July 28 by allowing just one hit in five scoreless frames before returning to Triple-A. The right-hander worked out of the bullpen in his last two outings with Reno and should serve as a long reliever while up with the big club.

Bauers is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants.

Bauers is getting his second consecutive day off after Gary Sanchez started as the designated hitter Wednesday. Sanchez has the start again Thursday as the designated hitter, batting fifth.
