Owings (foot) is expected to begin a rehab assignment this week, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Diamondbacks will return to Arizona next week, and the team is hopeful Owings will be healthy enough to make a return at that point. While the team travels to Toronto and Colorado, Owings will get reps in Arizona League games.

Owings was moved to the 15-day disabled list Saturday due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot.
EDGE Analysis
The plantar fasciitis kept him out of each of the last four games, and it will cost Owings extended time as well. Michael Bourn will likely take over the primary role in center field, while the team recalled right-handed pitcher Zack Godley to replace him on the 25-man roster.

Owings (foot) is out of the lineup again for Friday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Owings has missed the last three games due to a persisting foot injury that has shown the possibility of plantar fasciitis according to manager Chip Hale. This particular injury would affect Owings for the rest of the season, which could make playing everyday an unlikely occurrence. In his place, the Diamondbacks will start Nick Ahmed at shortstop for Friday's contest.

Owings (foot) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Owings sat out of Tuesday's contest due to foot discomfort and he'll miss his second consecutive game Wednesday. The concern is that manager Chip Hale alluded to the possibility of Owings have plantar fasciitis, which would affect his everyday availability the rest of the season in all likelihood. The Diamondbacks have an off day Thursday, so Owings' next chance to return to the lineup will come Friday when the Marlins come to town.

Owings is out of the lineup Tuesday due to foot discomfort, Jack Magruder of FanRag Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
According to manager Chip Hale, Owings has shown "the possibility" of plantar fasciitis, and if that is indeed the injury, it's something Owings would have to manage the rest of the season. Nick Ahmed is starting at shortstop Tuesday for a second straight day.

Owings went 2-for-4 with a RBI in Thursday's win over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old pushed his average up six points to .287 while recording his 18th RBI of the season with Thursday's effort. Owings has seen regular playing time for a few years now, but he seems to be finding his way in the 2016 campaign. After hitting just .171 against left-hander's last season, he's averaging .292 against southpaws this year. Owings is on pace to tally 50-plus RBI and 20 stolen bases.

EDGE Analysis
The outfielder has raised his average to .297 after hitting safely in 10 of the last 11 games. Owings has also hit seven extra-base hits over that span, and he's been one of Arizona's most consistent hitters during the past two weeks.

Owings is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Injuries to some of the Diamondbacks starters and Owings' versatility has allowed him to get regular playing time this season, and he's taken advantage of it, posting his best slash line since his first partial season in the majors. Despite this, manager Chip Hale decided to give the 24-year-old his first day off since May 4, giving Michael Bourn the start in center field for Monday's contest.

Owings is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Owings has filled in admirably for A.J. Pollock in center field, but he'll get a day to rest Wednesday. David Peralta will slide over to center field to take his spot, while Brandon Drury takes over in right field.

Owings is not in the lineup Wednesday night against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Although he is typically a middle infielder, Owings has been playing in center due to A.J. Pollock's elbow injury. With the 24-year-old out of the lineup for Wednesday's game, David Peralta will slide over to center while Brandon Drury gets the start in right.
