Roster moves​

The Arizona Diamondbacks made the following roster moves. The D-backs’ 40-man roster is at 39.

• Recalled from Triple-A Reno: SP Mitch Bratt
• Placed on 10-day IL: SP Zac Gallen (right elbow inflammation; retro to July 9)

Bratt makes his return to the D-backs rotation, after a brief outing on June 24. He went three innings and allowed one run, throwing 54 pitches. We probably won’t be getting too much more than that from Mitch this afternoon. He threw 57 pitches his last outing for Reno, tossing four shutout innings, and that’s likely to be the cap on what we should expect today. Still, with this being the last game before the All-Star break, we can empty the bullpen as necessary. If you’re going to have a game with a short starter, this is probably the best possible time to have one!
