Jordan Lawlar Returns to D-backs Clubhouse
Diamondbacks SS Jordan Lawlar has shown up at the clubhouse, suggesting a return to the active roster is imminent.
Jordan Lawlar arrived at the Arizona Diamondbacks' clubhouse, indicating he is close to returning to the active roster. His return puts pressure on struggling outfielders Max Kepler and Jorge Barrosa, who have both underperformed. The D-backs are expected to integrate Lawlar into a lineup mix that could include Waldschmidt, Carroll, and Nootbaar. Kepler, earning only the league minimum, appears to be the most likely roster casualty.
