Perdomo capped off the scoring in the ballgame with a run-scoring single in the seventh inning that increased the Diamondbacks’ lead to 4-1. While he has slumped a bit as of late, the 25-year-old infielder is still slashing a solid .260/.355/.411 on the season with eight homers, 53 RBI and 11 stolen bases.

Vargas fractured his feet on Tuesday night when he was hit by a pitch. We don’t yet have a timeline for his recovery, but given that it’s already almost July, it might be hard for Vargas to heal and return to the Diamondbacks roster before the end of the season. Blaze Alexander will take over his role as a reserve infielder.

This seemed like a foregone conclusion with Ildemaro Vargas fracturing his ankle on Tuesday. Alexander has hit .284/.413/.479 in 54 games at Triple-A with eight home runs, 11 steals, and a 59/38 K/BB ratio. He has primarily played third base for Reno, but has also appeared in plenty of games at shortstop and a few at second base as well, so he will likely fill a role as a reserve infielder while he’s up in Arizona.

The 31-year-old slugger got the Diamondbacks on the board first as he clobbered a 3-0 fastball for a 401-foot (106.7 mph EV) solo shot. Marte also singled in the fourth inning but wound up stranded at first base. With his two-hit attack, he’s now slashing a robust .320/.424/.608 with a 15 homer, 32 RBI and a pair of stolen bases.

Neto jammed his shoulder while attempting to steal a base Tuesday, and he’ll begin Wednesday’s contest on the bench. Scott Kingery will handle shortstop and hit ninth. More information about the severity of Neto’s injury should be available shortly.

Peña notably changed his representation on Monday and hired Scott Boras amid a career year that has seen him hit .326/.380/.493 with 11 home runs, 40 RBI, 47 runs, and 15 steals in 78 games. Alexander reports that the deal would exceed $105 million over five years, which feels like a reasonable price to pay for a 27-year-old middle infielder who is continuing to get better. Time will tell if the Astros can get a deal across the finish line, but after choosing not to re-sign Alex Bregman and trading away Kyle Tucker, it makes sense to try and use that extra money to lock up their breakout shortstop.

Neto stayed in initially after getting hurt, but he left the game after airmailing a throw afterwards. He’s optimistic he’ll be OK, but he wants tests for reassurance. If Neto needs an IL stint, Kyren Paris could take over as the Angels’ primary shortstop.
