He was replaced in right field by Jorge Barrosa, who hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning as Arizona went on to lose 10-4.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI went over to Corbin, and he was fine,\u201d Lovullo said. \u201cHe felt like he was in a good spot. I just said, look, I\u2019m going to start to layer in guys to get him off the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked directly if Carroll would be available Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox, Lovullo answered, \u201cHe\u2019s already in the lineup, yeah. He\u2019s starting in right field on Tuesday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carroll went 0-for-2 with the strikeout, lowering his batting average to .300 with a .390 on-base percentage and .600 slugging percentage. He has three home runs, 16 RBIs, six doubles and a major league-leading three triples in 20 games.<\/p>\n<p>Carroll missed two games in early April against the New York Mets due to tightness in his left hip flexor.<\/p>\n<p>He said after the game that his back issue might be related to the hip flexor tightness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was enough where in a game like that, I\u2019m fine getting out of there,\u201d Carroll said. \u201cBut in a closer game, I definitely would have stayed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said that he feels good and \u201ccould go play right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An All-Star in 2023 and 2025, Carroll was the National League Rookie of the Year in 2023. Arizona selected him in the first round (16th overall) of the 2019 MLB Draft.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013Field Level Media<\/p>\n<p>                                            <img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1776675260_301_be4452b65ace878d206f2029709048c825036e3517e6a89f4eedc3d4c530e2ba.jpeg\"  class=\"avatar avatar-96 photo\" height=\"96\" width=\"96\" decoding=\"async\"\/>                                            <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll exited Sunday\u2019s game in Phoenix against the Toronto Blue Jays after four innings&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":679666,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2404],"tags":[146,22,4314,5,38,4],"class_list":{"0":"post-679665","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-arizona-diamondbacks","8":"tag-arizona","9":"tag-arizona-diamondbacks","10":"tag-arizonadiamondbacks","11":"tag-baseball","12":"tag-diamondbacks","13":"tag-mlb"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116436196580420421","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/679665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=679665"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/679665\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/679666"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=679665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=679665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=679665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
