Locastro went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro stole his fourth base in 19 games this season with the Diamondbacks. He's started four straight games and six of eight since his most recent callup, serving as a replacement for the injured David Peralta (shoulder). He's batting .304 (7-for-23) with a .448 on-base percentage and two steals during the current stint for Arizona. With news that Peralta took batting practice Friday and could appear in an extended spring training game this weekend, Locastro's regularity in the starting lineup could end soon.

Locastro went 2-for-3 with a double in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro made his third start since being called up Friday, but this was the first against a right-hander. Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo had been deploying a platoon in left field to replace the injured David Peralta (shoulder), using Locastro against lefties and Blake Swihart when a right-hander started. Locastro has hit safely in all three starts and overall is 5-for-10 with three doubles, three RBI, a stolen base and three runs scored since the callup.

Locastro is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro and Blake Swihart have been splitting time in left field since David Peralta (shoulder) landed on the 10-day injured list, with both players drawing two starts apiece. A timeshare arrangement may be in store until one player separates himself from the other in the competition.

Locastro went 2-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, an RBI and two runs in Saturday's 10-4 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro made his second straight start since Friday's callup as San Francisco started left-handers in each contest. He's been an on-base machine in the two games, reaching base seven times, including being hit by a pitch three times Friday. The 26-year-old has been hit 161 times across parts of seven minor-league seasons and seven times in 34 plate appearances for Arizona in 2019. "I sort of realized that teams like to pound me in so I'm trying to use it as an advantage," Locastro told Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. "If they can't hit their spot in, then they hit me and I'm on base. Then I can be aggressive on the basepaths and score a lot of runs." Locastro showed off his aggression Saturday, turning a bloop single into a double. He can make himself useful to the D-backs with his speed -- he stole eight bases in 24 games at Triple-A Reno in 2019 and has stolen at least 20 in every season since 2014 -- but it's uncertain he stays up with the club when David Peralta (shoulder) returns.

Locastro started in left field and went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Friday's 18-2 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro was called up from Triple-A Reno on Friday after David Peralta (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list. He got the start against left-hander Drew Pomeranz, likely because the switch-hitting Blake Swihart, who had been filling in for Peralta, has a career .499 OPS against southpaws.

Locastro was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro was returned to the minor leagues May 7 after a brief five-day stint with the big club. He'll take the place of David Peralta (shoulder), who was placed on the 10-day injured list.

Locastro was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro's latest stint in the majors lasted just five days. He went 0-for-6 at the plate. Taylor Clarke was recalled in a corresponding move.

Locastro will start in left field and bat leadoff Monday against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

He'll displace normal leadoff man Jarrod Dyson atop the order with the Diamondbacks opposing a southpaw (Blake Snell) in the series opener. Locastro boasts some intriguing speed and has shown an ability to hit for contact in the high minors, but he'll largely remain off the fantasy radar while being stuck in a short-side platoon role with Arizona.

Locastro was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Thursday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro appeared in nine games earlier this season with Arizona and went 4-for-11 with two stolen bases. He'll add depth off the bench throughout his latest big-league stint.

The Diamondbacks optioned Locastro to Triple-A Reno ahead of Saturday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Locastro became expendable when the Diamondbacks acquired utility man Blake Swihart from the Red Sox on Friday. Unlike Swihart, Locastro still has minor-league options remaining, which was likely the primary factor in him getting sent back to Reno. The 26-year-old appeared in nine games during his stay with the big club, registering four hits in 11 at-bats to go with two steals.
