Soroka

Soroka, who gave up six runs to the Reds on Saturday, was placed on the IL today due to shoulder inflammation. “He’s going to hopefully be ready on Day 16,” Lovullo said. “The plan is to get him a couple days down, get him back on the bump and miss as few days as possible.”

Soroka, who is 8-4 with a 3.40 ERA in 18 starts this season, is down again after giving up six runs last night in his third start back from a glute strain. Kohl Drake could come back up to replace him on Thursday.

Soroka gave up six hits, walked three and struck out three. He fell to 8-4 with the loss. Soroka had allowed more than four runs in a game only once in his previous 17 starts this year. Soroka has a 3.40 ERA and a 3.71 xFIP. He’s lined up to face the Giants on the road next week.

Soroka struck out five and walked one against his former team. This was his second outing back from a mid-June glute strain, and he now has a solid 2.93 ERA on the season. He’s been a savvy one-year signing by Arizona, and he’ll look to continue pitching well, with a home start against the Reds up next.

Soroka missed almost two months with a left glute strain, but returned Monday with an excellent start against the Rockies. He gave up three hits, walked three and struck out three. Soroka was limited to 77 pitches in this one and seems like he’ll be on a pitch count for the next few starts until he’s completely stretched out. He lowered his ERA to 2.92 this season. Soroka is lined up to face the Braves on the road this weekend.

Soroka gets the ball for Monday’s series opener against the Rockies at Chase Field following a seven-week absence due to a left glute strain. Needless to say, it’s an extremely favorable matchup right away. The 29-year-old was in the midst of arguably his best season since his 2019 breakout with Atlanta, compiling a sparkling 3.07 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 79/17 K/BB ratio across 82 innings before hitting the shelf in mid-June. He should be rostered in all fantasy formats.

Soroka has been shelved since late June due to a left glute strain. He only threw 57 pitches in his latest minor league rehab start, so it’s possible he’ll face some workload limitations in his first start back. Before landing on the injured list, Soroka had compiled a 3.07 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and a 79/17 K/BB ratio over his first 82 innings of work.

Soroka struck out one and walked two while throwing 37 of his 57 pitches for strikes. Before this start, Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said his “gut feel: was that Soroka would only need one rehab start, so that would potentially mean the right-hander could return on Monday to face the Rockies at home. Given that Soroka was only at 57 pitches in this game, we wouldn’t expect much more than 70 in that start against Colorado.

Soroka is working his way back from a left glute strain that put him on the injured list back in late June. The general expectation is that he’ll need at least one minor league rehab start before returning to Arizona’s rotation at some point in August.

Soroka threw a bullpen on Tuesday as he continues to work back from his glute strain. It sounds like the results of the bullpen might have been mixed since he still does not have a rehab appearance scheduled. Once his glute feels good enough for game action, Soroka will need at least one rehab start before rejoining Arizona’s rotation.
