Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll Makes Head-Turning Decision Amid Fractured Wrist Rehab
Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll Makes Head-Turning Decision Amid Fractured Wrist Rehab originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Arizona Diamondbacks have been trying to stay in playoff contention despite a series of recent injuries over the past month.

Just 14 days after the injury took place on June 18, Carroll was taking batting practice this week, only supposed to be just taking dry swings, but Carroll made a dramatic jump in his rehab. Carroll was assigned to take simulated at-bats, but Diamondbacks' manager Torey Lovullo was surprised by Corbin Carroll's progress. Advertisement "I went out for BP. I saw him in the cage and hitting off [the Trajekt simulator] and he was lighting the ball up. He made a couple of comments, walked by me, sat with the trainer for a second. He said, 'Do you mind if I play in the ACL game tonight?'" Manager Lovullo told reporters on Thursday night.

There haven't been any reports on what the timetable for Corbin Carroll's return to the Diamondbacks' batting lineup may be, but it seems that he's progressing well above expectations since injuring his wrist in mid-June. Advertisement Arizona has clearly been missing Carroll's presence on the team, losing six of their last eight games and falling further behind in the NL West race. The Diamondbacks now sit 12.5 games behind the division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers, though they remian just 3.5 fames out of a National League Wild Card spot. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 4, 2025, where it first appeared.

Arizona's Best Batter Joins Club's Top Pitcher On MLB Injury List

The title chances of the Arizona Diamondbacks were last seen heading out to sea on an injury wave threating to burst into a tidal wave. The 2003 National League champions had already lost star pitcher Corbin Burnes, relievers A.J. Puk and Justin Martinez, and catcher Gabriel Moreno when All-Star outfielder Corbin Carroll – widely considered their best player – suffered a fractured wrist over the weekend. For the D'backs, who entered play Tuesday just two-and-a-half games short of the National League's third wild card berth, that news hit with the force of another nail in the coffin. Carroll, 24, has 20 homers in 72 games and is a catalyst at the top of the lineup. He has nine extra-base hits in 13 games this month. Although the team placed the slugger on the injured list, it did not indicate how long he'll be out with what was termed a 'chip fracture' in his left wrist. Carroll is a left-handed hitter. The 2023 NL Rookie of the Year was hurt when Toronto relief pitcher Justin Bruihl hit him on the wrist with a sinker that didn't sink. The pitch was timed at 91 mph. It's just the latest and greatest disaster for the Diamondbacks. Burnes needed Tommy John elbow surgery expected to cost him the rest of this season and most of next. Ditto Puk and Martinez. Moreno will return sooner from his fractured index finger but his absence may last well into July. It may take three men to replace the young All-Star. The team has already announced that Geraldo Perdomo will be the new leadoff man, Randal Grichuk will play right field, and Jake McCarthy – promoted from Triple-A Reno – will fill the vacant roster spot. Fortunately for manager Torey Lovullo, Arizona has a robust offense even without Carroll's speed-plus-power package. Ketel Marte is having another All-Star season and could be joined on the NL's squad for this year's game by Eugenio Suarez, who hit four home runs in one game against Atlanta. Josh Naylor and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. also swing potent bats. The D'backs entered play Tuesday fourth in the NL West at 40-38. They rank third, trailing only the Dodgers and Yankees, with an average of 5.19 runs per game. Carroll, the catalyst, had 58 extra-base hits – 22 of them home runs – and 35 stolen bases last season.

Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez leaves game after being hit on the right hand by a pitch
Eugenio Suárez, the Arizona Diamondbacks' third baseman, left Monday night's game in the first inning after being struck on the hand by a 95.9 mph fastball thrown by Chicago White Sox starter Shane Smith. The team reported on social media that he sustained a bruise and that X-rays were negative. Suárez hopped in the batter's box as he raised his right hand in pain. He dropped his bat and grabbed his right hand with his left. Ildemaro Vargas replaced him in the field for the bottom of the first. The day began with Suárez being named the NL player of the week after batting .440 with four home runs and 10 RBIs. He's the second Diamondbacks player to be hit by a pitch recently. Star outfielder Corbin Carroll hasn't played since a sinker caught him in the left hand Wednesday in Toronto. The banged-up Diamondbacks are also missing catcher Gabriel Moreno, who suffered a hairline fracture in his right index finger after being hit by a wild pitch.
