Perdomo went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 5-4 win over Toronto.

Perdomo scored one of Arizona's two runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to tie the game, and his sacrifice fly an inning later walked off the Blue Jays. The shortstop has hit safely in nine of 11 contests, going 13-for-40 (.325) with two walks, six RBI, one steal and nine runs. He's currently batting a career-high .287.

Wrobleski is scheduled to start Saturday's game against the Tigers in Detroit.

The rookie southpaw will make a second turn through the rotation despite a so-so performance in his MLB debut this past Sunday. While taking a loss to Milwaukee, Wrobleski struck out four over five innings while giving up four runs on five hits and two walks. A matchup with a poor Detroit offense represents a good spot for Wrobleski to deliver an improved performance, but regardless of how he fares against the Tigers, he may not be guaranteed any starts beyond this weekend. The Dodgers could get Tyler Glasnow (back) and/or Walker Buehler (hip) back from the injured list immediately after the All-Star break, and Wrobleski would likely be the Los Angeles pitcher most at risk of losing his rotation spot in such a scenario.

Wisely went 3-for-3 with a triple, a double, a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's 7-1 win over the Twins.

Wisely's offense has been all or nothing in July with three multi-hit efforts and just one hit over the other seven contests. The shortstop finished a home run shy of the cycle Friday in one of his best games of the year. The triple was his first of the campaign. Wisely is slashing .286/.322/.436 with three home runs, 10 doubles, 18 RBI, 16 runs scored and one stolen base over 150 plate appearances. With Nick Ahmed released by the Giants earlier in the week, Wisely is now the starting shortstop, though he may sit out in favor of Tyler Fitzgerald against some left-handed pitchers.

Carroll went 1-for-4 with a walk, an RBI, two stolen bases and a run scored in Friday's 5-4 win over the Blue Jays.

Carroll is batting just .186 (8-for-43) in July, but he's posted four extra-base hits and four steals over 10 contests this month. The outfielder is now 18-for-23 on the basepaths this season. He's also at a poor .210/.297/.316 slash line with three home runs, 26 RBI and 57 runs scored over 92 games for the year.

Nelson allowed three runs on five hits and struck out five without walking a batter over seven innings in a no-decision versus the Blue Jays.

After an inconsistent June, Nelson has settled down in July. He's allowed five runs and posted a 13:2 K:BB over 18.2 innings across his last three starts, though he has just one win in that span. The right-hander is nevertheless trending in the right direction, with his ERA now at 4.98 to go with a 1.42 WHIP and 59:20 K:BB over 86.2 innings this season.

Bogaerts went 2-for-4 in Friday's 6-1 loss to Atlanta.

Bogaerts, who was activated from the injured list earlier in the day after recovering from a fractured left shoulder, was the only Padre to put up multiple hits in the contest. It was his first game action since May 20, and he played the full game at second base, which suggests he's healthy enough to handle a starting role. Luis Arraez and Jake Cronenworth are likely to be impacted by Bogaerts' return, though there's room for all three of them in the lineup against right-handers. Bogaerts is slashing .225/.270/.319 over 204 plate appearances this season, adding four home runs, four stolen bases, 14 RBI and 23 runs scored.

Waldron (5-8) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one over seven innings to take the loss Friday versus Atlanta.

Waldron has gone at least six innings in eight of his last nine starts, but this was the first time since May 5 he was tagged for more than three earned runs. He's now on a four-start winless skid, and Waldron is starting to have some trouble with homers -- after giving up two in the fifth inning Friday, he's been tagged for six long balls over his last five starts. The right-hander is still fairly reliable with a 3.71 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 93:31 K:BB in 106.2 innings through 19 starts this season, and struggling against Atlanta's strong lineup isn't overly concerning.

Arcia went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 6-1 win over the Padres.

Arcia ended a couple of lengthy droughts, as he had gone 29 games since his last multi-hit effort and his last homer. During the slump, the shortstop hit just .147 with four doubles and two RBI. He started the season well, but he's now at a .212/.246/.338 slash line with seven homers, 25 RBI, 27 runs scored, 18 doubles and no stolen bases over 88 contests. Arcia hasn't been challenged for his spot in the lineup, but that's mostly a testament to his reliable defense.

Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Friday's 6-1 win over the Padres.

This was Ozuna's fourth straight multi-hit game, and he's swatted five homers over his last eight contests. He put up Atlanta's first and last runs in the win. For the year, the slugger is up to 26 homers, 77 RBI, 57 runs scored, 20 doubles and a .301/.377/.584 slash line through 93 games. Ozuna hit a career-high 40 long balls last year and looks to have a decent chance to match that number in 2024.

Schwellenbach (3-4) allowed one run on three hits and a walk while striking out three over seven innings to earn the win Friday over the Padres.

After a middling June, Schwellenbach has allowed just two runs over 13 innings across his first two starts in July. The only downside to his performance Friday was that his three strikeouts matched his season low. The rookie right-hander has a 4.43 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 41:10 K:BB through 44.2 innings over the first eight starts of his career.
