Tim Tawa went 1-for-4 with a grand slam home run in the bottom of the seventh to help the Diamondbacks to a come-from-behind, 11-7 win over the Padres on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Tawa hit the grand slam off of Padres' reliever David Morgan to bring the Diamondbacks to within a run in the seventh. It was his first home run of the year and was the eighth of his career in 240 at bats over two seasons. The utility man is hitting .146 (6-for-41) in 16 appearances this season.
The Arizona Diamondbacks recalled Tim Tawa from Triple-A Reno on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Tawa has struggled in his rookie season, posting a .200/.262/.355 slash line over 155 at-bats. With Tyler Locklear (elbow) on the injured list, Tawa has rejoined the team and will have an opportunity to play first base.
Tim Tawa exited Thursday's game with Triple-A Reno after being hit by a pitch.
Fantasy Impact
Tawa exited Thursday's game after being hit by a pitch, and the severity of the injury is not yet known. He was optioned to Triple-A Reno on July 5 after slashing .200/.262/.355 over 173 plate appearances with the Diamondbacks this season.
The Diamondbacks optioned INF Tim Tawa to Triple-A Reno.
Fantasy Impact
Tawa loses his roster spot with Corbin Carroll activated from the injured list. He was hitting .200 with six home runs and seven steals in 59 games since being called up for the first time.
Tim Tawa is expected to see most of his playing time in the outfield for the Arizona Diamondbacks moving forward. This shift comes after the team recalled infielder Jordan Lawlar from Triple-A Reno on Monday. Tawa remained on the roster as infielder/outfielder Garrett Hampson was designated for assignment.
Fantasy Impact
Tawa had previously filled in at second base while Ketel Marte was on the injured list and has since operated as a utility infielder. 1 With Jordan Lawlar now expected to be the Diamondbacks' top utility infielder, Tawa will transition to an outfield role, which will include some action in center field. He has made one start in left field for Arizona this season and made 26 starts in the outfield in the minors during 2024.
