Diamondbacks face Padres as Michael Soroka injury updates continue

The Arizona Diamondbacks are playing the San Diego Padres in a four-game series, with Game 3 underway on July 8 at Petco Park. The Diamondbacks continue to monitor right-hander Michael Soroka's recovery from a glute injury, which may delay his return as previous throwing sessions have been postponed. Manager Torey Lovullo hopes Soroka can throw off the mound again on July 12. In pitching matchups, Diamondbacks' Jose Cabrera opposes Padres' Michael King, who has been the most reliable starter for San Diego this season. Multiple upcoming games for Arizona are scheduled against both the Padres and Dodgers in the coming days.
