Diamondbacks’ Torey Lovullo Announces Corbin Carroll News Before Rockies Game<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Arizona Diamondbacks, currently posting a 37\u201337 record and positioned fourth in the NL West\u2014trailing the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers by eight games\u2014are navigating a challenging stretch as they push for a playoff spot.<\/p>\n

The season\u2019s expectations took a major hit when offseason acquisition and Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes was lost to Tommy John surgery, a setback that comes as a huge blow to the team\u2019s playoff aspirations.<\/p>\n

Despite the mediocre record, the Diamondbacks have shown strength on the offensive side; they rank third in runs per game at 5.1 and fourth in home runs with 104, while posting a team-wide\u00a0.442 slugging percentage and .772 OPS, both of which rank them third in the league.<\/p>\n

A significant contributor to this offensive output is Corbin Carroll, though he missed the last game after being hit by a pitch in the hand.<\/p>\n

On MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM, Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo offered an encouraging update.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s getting very close,”\u00a0Lovullo said.\u00a0“I think we really dodged the bullet. It’s in a very, very sensitive space, but the ball got a lot of meat instead of a lot of bone. So hopefully sooner rather than later.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carroll, the 2023 Rookie of the Year and an All-Star who played a key role in leading the Diamondbacks to the World Series in 2023, continues to stand out for his contributions this season.<\/p>\n

He has already accumulated an impressive 2.7 WAR over 72 games, tallying 20 home runs and 10 stolen bases while posting a .255 batting average and a .914 OPS.<\/p>\n

His availability remains a critical component for Arizona\u2019s success as the team navigates recent setbacks in its quest for a postseason berth.<\/p>\n
