Aiming for early-August return Manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Soroka (glute) is in line to return from the injured list sometime around early August, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact The plan is for Soroka to throw a couple more bullpen sessions Saturday and Tuesday before pitching in a simulated game the following Saturday (July 25). The D-backs have already confirmed the right-hander will make at least one rehab start before returning to the big-league rotation, which will push his next start with Arizona into next month. An exact date for his second-half debut will likely emerge as he continues to check off boxes in his throwing program.

Will require rehab assignment Manager Torey Lovullo said Thursday that Soroka (glute) will require a rehab start before returning to the Diamondbacks' rotation, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.

Impact Soroka hasn't pitched since June 19 but did throw a bullpen session Tuesday. Lovullo said Soroka's timeline is somewhat up in the air, and it's unclear when the right-hander will make his rehab start. With Zac Gallen (elbow) landing on the injured list this week, the Diamondbacks will need to continue to fill multiple holes in the rotation. Jose Cabrera will be an option to be called back up to Arizona.

Placed on injured list The Diamondbacks placed Soroka on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a strained left glute.

Impact Soroka suffered the injury while warming up for the second inning of Friday's game, putting a premature end to his start. He'll now be forced to sit out through the beginning of July, though he may still be able to make a few more starts before the All-Star break, depending on how quickly he can recover. Philip Abner was recalled from Triple-A Reno to give Arizona extra bullpen depth while the team sorts out its rotation plans.

Exits early Friday Soroka was removed from Friday's game against the Twins with an apparent injury, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Soroka gave up two hits in a scoreless first inning Friday but felt something while warming up for the second and was taken out of the game. It's unclear what exactly the 28-year-old righty is dealing with, but the D-backs should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Impressive again in no-decision Soroka completed seven innings against Cincinnati on Saturday, allowing one run on two hits and no walks while striking out seven batters in a no-decision.

Impact Soroka gave up a run on two hits in the third inning, but aside from that frame the only baserunner he allowed came on a first-inning hit-by-pitch. The right-hander retired the final 13 batters he faced and finished with his sixth quality start over his past eight outings while fanning seven batters. Soroka is in the midst of an excellent campaign, posting an 8-3 record along with a 3.11 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 79:17 K:BB over 81 innings spanning 14 starts. Perhaps most importantly, he's managed to stay healthy -- he's nine innings away from reaching 90 in the majors for the first time since the 2019 season.

Shuts down Nats for eighth win Soroka (8-3) earned the win Sunday against Washington, allowing one run on three hits and two walks while striking out six across seven innings.

Impact After surrendering a game-tying solo homer to CJ Abrams in the second inning, Soroka was nearly perfect the rest of the way, tossing five scoreless frames to close out his seven-inning effort. It was his first start of at least seven innings with one or fewer earned runs since August 10, 2019 -- a meaningful milestone for a pitcher who has spent the better part of those six years battling back from two torn Achilles injuries. Soroka's ERA at Chase Field sits at an impressive 2.09 across eight home starts this season. With a 3.28 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 72:17 K:BB in 74 innings, he will seek to build off Sunday's success in his next scheduled start on the road against Cincinnati.

Settles in after early struggles Soroka (7-3) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six over six innings to take the loss against the Dodgers on Tuesday.

Impact Soroka gave up all four runs and six of the seven baserunners he allowed over the first two innings. He was able to settle in after that, but the Diamondbacks' comeback effort came up short. Considering the tough matchup, this was decent work for Soroka. He's at a 3.49 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 66:15 K:BB through 67 innings over 12 starts this season. Soroka is projected to make his next start over the weekend at home versus the Nationals.
