News
	Samad Taylor has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain. Diego Sandoval Wed, Jul 8th	Jorge Barrosa went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run as the Diamondbacks dropped a 10-4 decision to the Blue Jays on Sunday. David Leisering Mon, Apr 20th
	Samad Taylor went 3-for-4 in the Padres 7-6 win over the Braves on Tuesday. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 24th	Barrosa is hitting .324 with three doubles, two triples, two home runs and eight RBI across 37 Cactus League plate appearances, and his ability to play all three outfield positions adds to his case for one of three remaining bench spots. Being out of minor-league options gives him a further advantage over the competition. Bruno Mulé Sat, Mar 21st
	Samad Taylor went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in the Padres 9-3 win over the Orioles on Saturday. Ari Koslow Sun, Jun 14th
