RHP Zack Godley will make his third start in place of injured RHP Shelby Miller in the first game of a three-game series against the Mets on Monday. Godley gave up four hits and one run in seven innings of a 7-1 victory over Detroit last Tuesday. The Diamondbacks are scheduled to play 17 straight games following an off day Thursday, but manager Torey Lovullo said no determination has been made on Godley's future starts. "All I can control is what they allow me to control, and that's me pitching," Godley sad. "Whenever I get that opportunity, I try to control that situation as best I can and keep trying to make pitches and get guys out." Godley is 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA in his two starts and is limiting opponents to a .200 batting average.

RHP Zack Godley will start Monday for the Diamondbacks against the New York Mets, manager Torey Lovullo announced before Friday's game. Godley is coming off a seven-inning gem on Wednesday when he held the Detroit Tigers to a run and four hits. The Diamondbacks were looking to name a fifth starter, and for the moment, the job is Godley's. "We felt like he was the right guy, he deserved it, he threw the ball really well his last start," Lovullo said. "All I can control is what they ask me to control."

RHP Zack Godley has turned in two solid starts in spot duty for the Diamondbacks this season, most recently a four-hitter over seven innings in which he allowed only one run and got the win in Arizona's 7-1 victory over Detroit on Wednesday. Yet manager Torey Lovullo has still not named Godley, or anyone else, the team's fifth starting pitcher in a rotation that will be without Shelby Miller for the rest of the season. "Still discussing that. Still working through what will happen in his next turn," Lovullo said. "Whatever it is, we want to make sure that that spot will give us the best chance to win the game."

RHP Zack Godley gave up four hits and one run in seven innings in his second spot start of the season after being recalled from Triple-A Reno earlier in the day. He struck out six, walked one and got 14 ground-ball outs. He is likely to get another start the next turn through the rotation during a stretch in which the Diamondbacks play nine straight games. His next turn would come against the Mets on Monday, although manager Torey Lovullo would not commit. "He did a great job. I will say that," Lovullo said. "We will sit down and talk about that in the coming days and figure out the best situation for us moving forward." Godley also drew a two-out walk to set up A.J. Pollock's two-out single for 4-1 lead in the sixth inning. "He controlled the strike zone in the batter's box, too," Lovullo said. "Huge at-bat."

RHP Zack Godley will be recalled from Triple-A Reno to make a spot start Wednesday against Detroit. Godley has made one previous start in the majors this season, giving up two runs and four hits in five innings of a no-decision of an 8-5 loss against San Diego on April 26. Godley seems likely to remain in the rotation for the next start, since the D-Backs play six straight games. "Good performances earn extra moments," Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. "Out of fairness twosome of the callups, it would be nice to see what they could do over two turns. We're hoping it trends in that direction. He deserves this opportunity." Arizona most likely will send a pitcher out when Godley is activated, Lovullo said.

RHP Zack Godley will be recalled to start Wednesday against Detroit. He went 5-4 with a 6.39 ERA in 27 games, nine starts, for the Diamondbacks last year. He's 0-0 with a 3.60 ERA in one start for them this year, having allowed four hits and two runs in five innings on April 26 against San Diego without factoring in the decision in Arizona's 8-5 loss.

RHP Zack Godley was returned to Triple-A Reno on Wednesday night after giving up two runs in five innings in a no-decision against San Diego. He was recalled earlier that day for the start and was in line for the victory until RHP Fernando Rodney gave up five runs in the ninth inning. "He just wants me to continue to work and continue to show I can get guys out in whatever role they need me in," Godley said about his postage conversation with manager Torey Lovullo. The D-Backs do not need a fifth starter again until May 6.

RHP Zack Godley is to be recalled from Triple-A El Paso to make Wednesday's start against San Diego while the team awaits word on RHP Shelby Miller. Godley was 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA in three appearances with Reno. He gave up one single white striking out seven in seven scoreless innings of a 7-1 victory in his most recent start last Wednesday. "I was locating all of my pitches pretty well," Godley said. "It was lot of fun to be a part of. To be able to throw the ball exactly where you want to each time is just a great feeling." Godley was 5-4 with a 6.54 ERA in 27 appearances, nine starts, with Arizona last season after going 5-1 with a 3.19 ERA in nine appearances in 2015.

RHP Zack Godley pitched two innings of no-hit relief in Monday night's 10-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. After walking the first two batters he faced, Godley retired the next six, two by strikeout. The right-hander reduced his earned-run average as a reliever to 3.68 and his overall ERA to 6.46.

RHP Zack Godley has been demoted to the bullpen, Diamondbacks manager Chip Hale announced before Tuesday's game. Godley was rocked for nine runs in just two innings in a start Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. The 26-year-old allowed 16 runs over seven innings in his last two starts after opening the season with a 4-2 record.

Manager Chip Hale said Zack Godley, who gave up nine runs in two innings in a start Saturday against Cincinnati, would pitch out of the bullpen for the time being.

RHP Zack Godley could be the odd man out in the starting rotation when RHP Shelby Miller returns from Triple-A Reno, a move that could come Wednesday. Godley gave up nine runs and nine hits in two innings on Saturday when he surrendered three homers, two to Cincinnati RF Scott Schebler and one to 1B Joe Votto. After going a career-long 7 1/3 innings in a victory over the New York Mets on Aug. 17, Godley has given up 16 runs and 18 hits in his last five innings over two starts. His ERA jumped to 6.71.

RHP Zack Godley pitched a career-best 7 1/3 innings on Wednesday in his first start since Aug. 3. Godley gave up four runs and four hits with two walks and four strikeouts for his first win since July 24. Only four Mets reached scoring position after the first inning, and during one stretch between the first and fifth innings he retired 15 of 16 hitters. "Zack had really good stuff tonight," Arizona manager Chip Hale said. "The ball was moving all over the place. They weren't squaring many balls off of him."

RHP Zack Godley was moved into the starting rotation after LHP Patrick Corbin was demoted to the bullpen, Arizona manager Chip Hale announced Sunday. Godley (3-2, 5.24 ERA) is 7-3 with a 4.41 ERA in 12 career starts, opposed to 1-0 with a 4.00 ERA in 10 relief appearances. The right-hander was nearly forced into action Sunday, as he was warming in the bullpen in the second inning following a shaky 1 2/3-inning start from Zack Greinke.

RHP Zack Godley will move to the bullpen to clear a spot in the rotation for RHP Zack Greinke, who is be activated from the disabled list for a start Tuesday at the New York Mets. Godley had been listed as the Thursday starter. "I was not expecting it," Godley said. "It didn't catch me off guard, that's for sure. I'm OK with the move. I'm still here." Arizona wants to be cautious with the load on its young pitchers, and Godley was approaching a career high. He threw 136 1/3 innings at three levels including the majors in 2015 and has 120 1-3 this season.

RHP Zack Godley gave up four runs on eight hits in six innings and was one out from a quality start before Nationals RHP Max Scherzer had a two-out, two-run single on an 0-2 pitch to cap a three-run sixth inning rally for a 4-1 lead. "I didn't make a pitch," Godley said of Scherzer's at-bat. "I threw a cutter that just ran in like a fastball and he put a good swing on it and got it back up the middle." Godley had made six starts this season while RHP Rubby De La Rosa and RHP Zack Greinke have spent time on the disabled list. It is not clear who Greinke will replace in the rotation when he returns, likely Tuesday or Wednesday. RHP Braden Shipley, who threw six scoreless innings in his second major league start Saturday, is scheduled to start Friday against Milwaukee.

RHP Zack Godley worked six innings, giving up three runs and three hits with four strikeouts and a walk but did not factor into the decision in Friday's 9-7 loss to the Dodgers. It was the second quality start of the season for Godley and his fifth overall.

RHP Zack Godley hung around for 5 2/3 innings on Sunday despite allowing five earned runs and 10 hits over 88 pitches. He walked two and struck out two in the Diamondbacks' 9-8 win at Cincinnati. "Guy's a warrior," manager Chip Hale said. "He gave up some runs. There were a lot of ground ball hits in that one inning. The mistake was the hit batsman (to begin the three-run third). Just seems like, we walk a batter, or hit a batter, they score."

RHP Zack Godley gave up four runs (three earned runs) and six hits in five innings of his third start with the team this season after being recalled earlier Tuesday, his third stint with the team. Godley filled the spot of RHP Zack Greinke, who has been three turns through the rotation with a left oblique strain. The most damaging blow was a three-run homer by Toronto 1B Edwin Encarnacion that gave the Blue Jays a 3-1 lead in the third inning. "I am in the zone, but the couple of pitches I leave up they made me pay for," Godley said. "I just have to work down and keep getting ground balls. For the most part I did that. Just a couple of pitches messed me up."

RHP Zack Godley will be recalled from Triple-A Reno to take RHP Shelby Miller's spot in the rotation for Tuesday's start against Toronto.
