Hinds went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a double in Monday's win over the Rockies.

Hinds was promoted from Triple-A Louisville for his MLB debut Monday and wasted no time making an impact. He doubled in the fifth inning for his first career hit before belting a 449-foot homer in the eighth. The 23-year-old produced a .698 OPS in 328 Triple-A plate appearances prior to his promotion.

Siani went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 6-0 win over the Nationals.

Siani has gone 5-for-15 with one RBI, three runs scored and three strikeouts over his last four games. A run of five straight opposing left-handed pitchers has taken a chunk out of his recent playing time, though Siani has started in three of those games while the switch hitting Dylan Carlson moved between center field and right field. For the year, Siani has a .233/.266/.312 slash line, two home runs, 10 steals, 13 RBI and 26 runs scored over 208 plate appearances.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 6-0 win over the Nationals.

Goldschmidt has logged a trio of multi-hit efforts over his first seven contests in July, going 9-for-34 (.265) in that span. The first baseman is still struggling overall with a .229/.293/.369 slash line for the year, adding 12 homers, 34 RBI, 45 runs scored and six stolen bases across 87 games. He has five homers and 12 RBI over 28 contests since the start of June.

Freeman went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Brewers.

Freeman walked in the third and stole second base but was left there stranded with the bases loaded. It was just his fourth swipe of the year and his first since June 5. The 34-year-old has started off July well at the dish, tallying eight hits, six RBI and a 5:5 BB:K over his first six games of the month. It's a continuation of what he's been doing all season long, as he's slashing .301/.406/.506 with 13 homers, 58 RBI, 55 runs and a 54:61 BB:K in 399 plate appearances.

Mikolas (7-7) earned the win Monday at Washington, allowing six hits with no walks over 6.2 scoreless innings. He struck out three.

The veteran right-hander posted his second scoreless outing and 11th quality start of the season with this 93-pitch performance. Mikolas allowed just one extra-base hit -- a double by Keibert Ruiz in the fourth -- working around five singles en route to his 61st career win. The 35-year-old now owns a 4.88 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 75:18 K:BB across 107 innings this season. He is currently not scheduled to make another start until after the All-Star break.

Montgomery (knee) will throw a 20-to-25 pitch bullpen session Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Montgomery resumed flat-ground work over the weekend and has now been cleared to try things from the bump. The veteran left-hander is eligible to return from his right knee injury on Sunday, and it would appear possible that he'll be ready by that time. However, the Diamondbacks could also elect to push Montgomery's return until after the All-Star break in order to allow him extra time to heal.

Rodriguez (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Rodriguez got the green light to pitch off the mound Tuesday after his MRI on Saturday showed his left shoulder had fully healed. Since the 31-year-old hasn't pitched this season, he will need multiple bullpen sessions before embarking on a rehab assignment. Barring any setbacks, Rodriguez could return from the injured list in late July or early August.

Burleson went 2-for-5 with a solo homer and two additional RBI in Monday's 6-0 victory over Washington.

The St. Louis slugger smashed a 406-foot, solo shot off Jacob Barnes in the eighth inning to extend the lead to 3-0. Burleson has rounded into a formidable bat over his past 20 games, hitting .316 (24-for-76) with five homers, 21 RBI and 15 runs scored while batting second nearly every day. Overall, the 25-year-old is slashing .283/.319/.464 with 14 homers, 45 RBI and 36 runs scored in 316 total plate appearances.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Monday that Kelly (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Kelly recently upped his throwing distance to 120 feet, and Tuesday will mark the first time he's thrown off the mound since straining his right shoulder in April. It's a positive step in the 35-year-old's throwing program, though the right-hander isn't expected to come off the injured list until mid-to-late August. In the four starts prior to his injury, Kelly was 2-0 with a 2.19 ERA and 0.93 WHIP over 24.2 innings.

Parker (5-5) took the loss Monday against the Cardinals, allowing two runs (one earned) on six hits and one walk over seven innings. He struck out six.

After pitching to a 5.82 ERA across 17 innings over his last three outings, Parker looked much sharper against St. Louis, tossing his sixth quality start of the season. The Washington rookie yielded just one extra-base hit -- a 415-foot solo shot to Paul Goldschmidt in the fourth. Although the 24-year-old southpaw hasn't tallied a win since June 16, he has been a dependable starter overall with a 3.44 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 74:19 K:BB across 91.2 innings. Parker is tentatively scheduled to pitch against the Brewers on the road in his next start this weekend.
