The Arizona Diamondbacks recalled right-handed pitcher Corbin Martin from the Triple-A Reno Aces on Monday.
In a corresponding move, RHP Jon Duplantier was optioned to Reno after a rough outing Sunday against the Angels.
Martin, who came over as part of the Zack Greinke trade in 2019, is considered the D-backs’ seventh best prospect by MLB Pipeline. He played just five games with the Houston Astros that season before being dealt.
In two starts for the D-backs this season (nine innings pitched), Martin has allowed nine runs, struck out eight and walked seven.

Duplantier was lit up by the Angels on Sunday in his fourth start for Arizona this season. The 26-year-old only lasted 1.1 innings, giving up six earned runs on six hits.
He hit one batter with no walks or strikeouts and his ERA currently sits at 13.15.
The D-backs will look to get back into the win column when they take on the San Francisco Giants on Monday night.
