Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Wednesday that Lawlar (hamstring) could return from the 10-day injured list during their upcoming road trip that begins Friday in Atlanta, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Lawlar completed the seventh game of his rehab assignment with Double-A Amarillo on Wednesday, playing nine innings in center field while going 1-for-5 with a solo home run. He's now played nine-inning games on consecutive days, which is typically a sign of a player nearing activation. After the trip to Atlanta on Friday, the Diamondbacks move on to Boston for a three-game set beginning Monday.

Siri went 1-for-2 with a double, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Siri came off the bench, pinch hitting for Josh Lowe in the sixth inning before remaining in the game in left field. While Siri has been left on the short side of a platoon in the outfield for much of the year, he's been productive with his time. He's batting .262 with an .802 OPS, seven home runs, three steals, 21 RBI, 24 runs scored and eight doubles over 144 plate appearances. That's a vast improvement compared to the paltry .292 OPS he had in 36 major-league plate appearances for the Mets a year ago in a campaign largely lost to a fractured tibia.

Trout went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Trout had gone nine games without a multi-hit effort, batting .129 (4-for-31) during that slump. He's logged a steal in consecutive games and has 10 on the year, reaching double digits in the category for the first time since 2019. Trout is batting .240 with an .833 OPS, 20 homers, 44 RBI, 68 runs scored and 16 doubles across 102 contests this year.

Hernandez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in the 8-2 win over Pittsburgh on Wednesday.

Hernandez extended the lead to 8-2 in the sixth with a crushing long ball to left-center off of Lake Bachar, his first homer in 10 games and 17th on the season. Hernandez had been mired in a 4-for-37 (.108 batting average) slump coming into Wednesday.

Conine went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, a double, three walks and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 8-2 victory over the Pirates.

Conine reached safely each time he came to the plate Wednesday, with the highlight of his night a towering home run to center field off former Marlin Lake Bachar. The 29-year-old has homered three times in the last three games and has been swinging a hot bat since the All-Star break, posting a 1.025 OPS with eight homers, 15 RBI, 13 runs and 11 walks across 84 plate appearances in that span.

Jones went 2-for-3 with three RBI and a pair of doubles in Wednesday's 10-5 win over Seattle.

On a night when the Yankees banged out a whopping eight extra-base hits, Jones accounted for two of them out of the No. 3 lineup spot. Luis Garcia has gotten off to a bit of a slow start since joining the Yankees, so it remains to be seen how New York will handle its batting order going forward. Jones has provided some pop while getting on base at a healthy clip but has struggled to hit for average, slashing .218/.312/.403 with five homers, 18 RBI, five stolen bases and 12 runs scored across 141 trips to the plate.

Adell went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Tigers.

Adell slugged the go-ahead homer in the fifth to deep left field off Framber Valdez to give the Guardians a 4-3 lead. The 27-year-old now has hit long balls in back-to-back games, his first two in a Cleveland uniform. Since making his Guardians debut Aug. 4, Adell has a .172/.324/.448 slash line with four RBI and a 10:5 K:BB in 37 plate appearances.

Martinez went 3-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI, and a run scored in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Tigers.

Martinez has now forged a seven-game hitting streak while making a case for more playing time in the Guardians' outfield. He's posted a .393 batting average and 10 RBI over 30 plate appearances during that span. Wednesday's game marked the 24-year-old's first three-hit effort since May 2.

Grisham went 3-for-5 with two home runs, four RBI and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Mariners.

It was Grisham's second multi-homer effort of the season and the ninth of his career. The outfielder is swinging a hot bat atop New York's batting order, tallying multiple hits in three consecutive outings amidst a four-game extra-base hit streak. Through 399 plate appearances, Grisham is slashing .222/.314/.418 with 15 long balls, 50 RBI, seven stolen bases and 59 runs scored.

Antonacci went 3-for-5 with a double and a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Reds.

Antonacci made a third straight start at second base, but with Chase Meidroth healthy again after a bout of wrist soreness, Antonacci figures to move back into a strong-side platoon role in left field soon. Over 10 contests in August, Antonacci has gone 8-for-33 (.242) with three RBI, and this was his first successful steal on three attempts this month. The 23-year-old is batting .278 with a .776 OPS, eight home runs, 15 steals, 35 RBI, 59 runs scored, 17 doubles and two triples over his first 99 big-league games.
