Marte went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Rockies.

Marte has gone 5-for-12, including three extra-base hits, over his last three games. The second baseman had picked up just one over the six contests prior to this turnaround. While his first-inning blast Tuesday gave the Diamondbacks a 2-0 lead, they weren't able to add to the score after that. Marte is batting .249 with a .758 OPS, 21 homers, 66 RBI, 63 runs scored, 23 doubles, three triples and four stolen bases over 115 games this season.

Carroll went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Rockies.

Carroll has gone 6-for-26 (.231) with four extra-base hits and four RBI over his last seven games. The outfielder gave the Diamondbacks a quick start on offense with his first-inning blast Tuesday. For the year, Carroll is batting .241 with an .805 OPS, 17 homers, 56 RBI, 73 runs scored, 24 doubles, 13 triples and 16 stolen bases over 117 contests.

Bratt allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out four over six innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Tuesday.

Bratt cruised until giving up a game-tying home run to Kyle Karros in the sixth inning. He's allowed just three runs over his last 18 innings while adding a 15:8 K:BB in that span. Bratt won the battle to stay in the rotation even after Michael Soroka returned from a glute injury, and with none of Arizona's other starting pitchers on the injured list expected back before September, Bratt is poised for a few more turns through the rotation. The 23-year-old has logged a 3.74 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 25:19 K:BB through 33.2 innings over his first seven starts in the majors. He's tentatively lined up to make his next start on the road in Boston.

Carrigg went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Carrigg has started to use his speed more in August, collecting four steals over 10 games this month. He's hitting .289 (11-for-38) in that span, including five doubles, though he hasn't homered since July 26. The rookie outfielder is batting .295 with an .876 OPS, five homers, seven steals, 30 RBI, 35 runs scored, 14 doubles and three triples across 52 contests this season.

Karros went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Karros had gone 1-for-12 with a walk and two strikeouts over his previous four games. His homer Tuesday ended a 19-game stretch without a long ball. The third baseman hasn't been able to tap into much consistent power this year with just 10 homers over 112 contests. He's slashing .265/.361/.424 with 44 RBI, 58 runs scored, 20 doubles, two triples and five stolen bases.

Romano allowed a hit and struck out one in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Romano had allowed three runs over his first two outings in August, but he settled in for a steadier performance Tuesday. Despite some bumpy patches, he remains the Rockies' closer and has converted seven of eight save chances while adding a hold during his time with Colorado. Romano has a 6.27 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 26:12 K:BB through 18.2 innings between the Rockies and the Angels this season while converting 11 of 14 save opportunities.

Sugano (12-5) allowed two runs on six hits and struck out five without walking a batter over six innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Sugano has three quality starts and four wins over five outings since he returned from a bout of back spasms. In that span, he's given up just 11 runs over 29.1 innings, though he's been tagged for eight home runs, including a pair of solo shots in Tuesday's outing. With 24 homers allowed this season, the long ball has been the main cause of the few struggles Sugano has had. He's at a 4.43 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 66:26 K:BB through 113.2 innings over 21 starts. His next start is projected to be in a matchup to avoid, as he's lined up to get the ball at home against the Dodgers early next week.

Harrison (9-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Padres, allowing eight runs on 10 hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.2 innings.

After tossing five innings of one-hit ball in his return to the rotation, Harrison experienced the complete opposite Tuesday. The left-hander surrendered a season-high 10 hits -- three of which left the yard -- while allowing eight runs before being chased in the fifth inning. The disastrous outing caused his ERA to jump from 2.84 to 3.47, though he still owns a strong 1.13 WHIP and offers plenty of swing-and-miss upside with 114 strikeouts across 93.1 innings this season. Harrison is scheduled to face the Mariners at home Tuesday in his next start.

Buehler (7-5) earned the win Tuesday against the Brewers, allowing one run on three hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings.

Buehler threw his second-highest pitch total of the season, tossing 58 of his 98 pitches for strikes, and completed six innings for the first time in 11 starts. His lone run allowed came in the third inning following a leadoff single and a hit batter. After surrendering 20 runs across 11 innings during a disastrous stretch in early July, the right-hander has allowed no more than three runs in each of his last five starts. Through 24 outings this season, Buehler owns a 4.88 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 100:47 K:BB across 114.1 innings. He's next scheduled to face the Mets on Monday.

Turang was diagnosed with a sprained thumb following Tuesday's loss to the Padres, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Turang remained in the game for the entirety of Tuesday's contest, so it's unclear when exactly he got hurt, but the Brewers may now be at risk of losing another infielder after placing Cooper Pratt (hamstring) on the injured list Sunday. Turang will presumably undergo imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and the team will likely know more about his status before Wednesday's series finale.
