Zack Greinke will not make his next start as he continues to deal with an oblique issue.

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Chip Hale said the right-hander is feeling better Friday, and a decision on a disabled list stint hasn't been made yet, according to Jody Jackson of FOX Sports.

Hale added Zack Godley will likely start Tuesday in his place.

Greinke left his June 28 start against the Philadelphia Phillies after two innings. The club later announced he was dealing with oblique tightness.

After struggling mightily in the month of April, Greinke has pitched to his ability ever since. As of his May 6 start, he's 8-1 with a 2.64 ERA.
