Greene (elbow) is up to 150 feet of long tossing as part of a rehab program in Arizona, Mike Petraglia of MLB.com reports.

Greene is being brought along slowly after undergoing right elbow surgery in March. The Reds are targeting late May for the right-hander to throw a bullpen session, per MLB.com, but he's not expected to re-join the big-league rotation until July.

Waldschmidt started in center field and went 0-for-3 while striking out three times in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Mets.

Waldschmidt, who was called up from Triple-A Reno on Friday, was making his first start in the majors. He was called up after the Diamondbacks designated Alek Thomas for assignment and is expected to receive plenty of opportunities to adapt to MLB pitching.

Marte went 1-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Mets.

Marte returned to the lineup Saturday after sitting out one game due to an illness. His eighth-inning double snapped an 0-for-11 slide, but the second baseman continues to fight a recent slump, having gone 3-for-30 (.100) over the last eight games.

Cunningham was placed on the 7-day injured list at Low-A Visalia on Friday and is in the concussion protocol, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

Cunningham was involved in a batting practice incident that led to him landing on the IL. The 19-year-old shortstop is slashing .394/.487/.485 with an 18:15 K:BB over 118 plate appearances for the Rawhide.

Lawlar will undergo imaging this week to determine how his broken right wrist is healing, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

Once the team assesses the state of Lawlar's wrist, they can determine how to proceed with his ramp-up. An earlier report indicated he was doing as much baseball activity as possible without using his right wrist, but that would change with encouraging results from the imaging. Lawlar is scheduled to return in early June.

Santana (thigh) will continue his rehab assignment through the weekend, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

There had been talk of Santana being activated this weekend, but the Diamondbacks opted to give him a couple more games at Triple-A Reno before re-evaluating him. He smacked a two-run home run Saturday and has 26 plate appearances over six games for the Aces.

O'Hearn went 2-for-5 with an RBI, a run and a walk Saturday against the Giants.

O'Hearn was overshadowed by a few bigger performances in the Pirates lineup, but he did manage to snap out of a brief slump. Across his prior five games, O'Hearn had only one hit across 14 at-bats with five strikeouts. Despite the brief downturn in production, he is still hitting .294 with five homers, 26 RBI and 21 runs scored across 38 games.

Lowe went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple, a walk, four RBI and two runs scored Saturday against the Giants.

Lowe contributed to a six-run rally for the Pirates in the seventh inning with a two-RBI triple, and he followed that up with a run-scoring double two frames later. He has multiple hits in each of his last three starts and has six RBI, five runs scored and one home run in that span. Lowe remains a key bat in the Pirates' lineup, hitting .269 with 27 RBI and 24 runs scored across 34 games to begin the season.

France went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 4-2 win against the Cardinals on Saturday.

France supplied the Padres with their first run on a fifth-inning solo blast. That marked his first long ball since he went deep twice versus Arizona on April 25. France hasn't been getting consistent playing time, and his start Saturday was just his second over San Diego's past six contests. However, the veteran infielder has done well pretty well when called upon, slashing .279/.313/.574 with four home runs, nine runs, 11 RBI and a stolen base through 64 plate appearances.

Machado went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a 4-2 victory versus St. Louis.

Machado gave San Diego closer Mason Miller an insurance run with a solo blast in the bottom of the eighth inning. The homer also marked a personal milestone for the veteran third baseman, as it was his 200th regular-season home run since he joined San Diego. Machado entered Saturday having gone 0-for-19 at the plate over his previous five contests, and he's still slashing an uncharacteristic .197/.303/.364 on the season, so he'll look to use his late long ball as a catalyst toward better success at the plate.
