Avila went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Avila made his first start since being activated off the injured list Friday. Per usual, he was the batterymate for staff ace Zack Greinke, who had a 6.23 ERA over his previous two starts while Avila was on the shelf. Avila is slashing .238/.415/.524 over 82 plate appearances.

"I've been doing everything normally, all baseball activities for the past week or so. Everything is good." Manager Torey Lovullo was so pleased that he said it was possible Avila could be activated in time to catch for Zack Greinke on Saturday against the Giants.

Avila went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Thursday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

While Carson Kelly is the primary catcher for the team, Avila is emerging as the personal catcher for Zack Greinke. He has now also homered in his last three starts, improving his season-long line to .220/.410/.508 across 78 plate appearances.

Carson Kelly has emerged as the primary catcher for the Diamondbacks, but Avila is settling in as Zack Grienke's catcher; he's caught all three starts by the Arizona ace since the team designated John Ryan Murphy.

Avila went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Rockies.
