Emmanuel Rivera - Recalled from Triple-A Rivera was recalled Tuesday from Triple-A Reno, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact He'll replace struggling outfielder Jake McCarthy on the Diamondbacks' active roster. Rivera had been off to a highly encouraging start this season at Reno, but the 26-year-old will likely operate mostly as a utility infielder with very little fantasy upside. He owns a career .238/.298/.393 batting line in the bigs.

Jake McCarthy - Optioned to Triple-A McCarthy was optioned Tuesday to Triple-A Reno, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Impact McCarthy had quite a bit of fantasy buzz leading into the 2023 campaign following his mini breakout in 2022, but he heads to the farm having slashed just .143/.229/.238 with one homer and two steals through 22 games (70 plate appearances) this season for the Diamondbacks. Emmanuel Rivera has been recalled in a corresponding move, though it should be Pavin Smith who benefits most from McCarthy's demotion.

Brandon Pfaadt - Could move up Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said the team has no plans to use a four-man rotation, meaning Pfaadt could be called up to take Drey Jameson's spot in the rotation, Theo Mackie of t...
Impact The Diamondbacks demoted Jameson to Triple-A Reno on Monday and, with three days off the next two weeks, could work a four-man rotation for a stretch. However, Lovullo is not inclined to go that way. Pfaadt started last Thursday for Reno. His turn comes up again Wednesday, although a day off Monday sets him up to start Tuesday on normal rest. That would put him on schedule to be available Saturday, the next time Jameson's turn in the rotation is due.
