Davies gave up two earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over 5.2 innings in a 3-2 win over the White Sox on Sunday. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Davies held his own in a road appearance against the White Sox and left the game an out short of a quality start. Davies had pitched five scoreless frames to open the contest but was given the hook by Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo after allowing a couple of runs to score on a sacrifice fly and infield single in the sixth. Davies has a K:BB of 80:38 in 108.1 innings this season and is stuck at only two wins despite making 21 starts. He will look for win number three his next expected time out against the Brewers.

Davies gave up one earned run on two hits and two walks while striking out one over 5.1 innings in a 7-3 win over the Royals on Tuesday. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Davies threw 45 of his 84 pitches for strikes and gave up only one run against the struggling Royals but was not able to pick up the win. Davies is winless in his last 12 starts and only has two victories on the season despite pitching 102.2 innings. The 29-year-old right-hander lowered his WHIP to a respectable 1.19 with the performance. He is tentatively expected to make his next start against the Phillies on Monday.

Davies did not factor in the decision against San Francisco on Wednesday, pitching five innings and allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters.
EDGE Analysis
Davies was effective in the contest, allowing just one run on a third-inning homer by LaMonte Wade Jr. Davies threw 45 of 82 pitches for strikes and registered his most punchouts since mid-June, but he got little run support and extended his stretch of outings without a win to 11. The inability to record a victory has been especially frustrating of late, as Davies has allowed just four runs over his past 15 innings.

Davies allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out two in five innings versus the Rockies on Friday. He did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Davies still hasn't stretched out much -- Friday was his third start since returning from a shoulder injury, and he threw just 49 of 82 pitches for strikes in this contest. The right-hander allowed a two-run double to Elehuris Montero in the fourth inning and a solo home run to Brian Serven in the fifth, taking himself out of contention for the win when he left with the game tied. Davies has a 4.11 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 68:32 K:BB through 92 innings across 18 starts. He's allowed seven runs across 12 frames in his last three outings, and he'll look to be more efficient in a projected road start versus the Giants next week.

Davies allowed four hits and two walks while striking out three over five scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Davies put in a solid performance in his second start back from a shoulder injury. He threw 49 of 80 pitches for strikes, but the Rockies weren't able to capitalize on his so-so command. It was a significant improvement after he allowed four runs in two innings in his previous start. The right-hander trimmed his ERA to 4.03 with a 1.22 WHIP and 66:30 K:BB through 87 innings across 17 starts this year. Davies is projected for a road rematch with the Rockies next week.

Davies didn't factor into the decision in Monday's 6-5 extra-innings loss to the Guardians, giving up four runs on three hits and two walks over two-plus innings. He struck out one.
EDGE Analysis
Two of the hits Davies allowed left the yard, including an Amed Rosario two-run blast to left-center field that chased the right-hander from the game with nobody out in the third inning. It was an inauspicious return to the rotation for Davies, who missed all of July with a shoulder issue, and he'll take a 4.28 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 63:28 K:BB through 82 innings into his next outing.

Davies (shoulder) was activated from the injured list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
It was reported Sunday that Davies would rejoin Arizona's rotation for the opener of its three-game set with the Guardians, and the team made the move official one day later. Davies will attempt to pick up where he left off after posting a 2.56 ERA and 0.95 WHIP over his previous five big-league starts.

Davies (shoulder) is starting Monday against the Guardians, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davies spent just over a month on the injured list due to right shoulder inflammation, but he resumed mound work July 23 and faced live batters Tuesday at the Diamondbacks' spring training complex. Over his five starts prior to his absence, he posted a 2.56 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 31.2 innings.

Davies faced live batters Tuesday at the Diamondbacks' spring training complex for the first time since suffering a shoulder injury and being placed on the injured list June 28.
EDGE Analysis
Davies has had a succession of promising throwing sessions since July 19 and appears to be closing in on a return. His next outing has yet to be determined. It's unclear if the Diamondbacks intend to put him back in the rotation or continue experimenting with Tyler Gilbert and Corbin Martin.

Davies (shoulder) threw a 35-pitch bullpen session Friday, Theo Mackie of the Arizona Republic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This was the second bullpen session of the week for Davies, who also threw a 20-pitch session Tuesday. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said the right-hander came out of Friday's session feeling "very good." Davies' next step will be to face live batters, although Lovullo did not provide a timeline for the pitcher's full return. Davies, who has a 3.94 ERA over 15 starts, landed on the injured list June 28 with shoulder inflammation. Since his injury and another to Humberto Castellanos (elbow), the back end of Arizona's rotation has been wobbly.
