Corbin Carroll News
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is starting in center field but has been moved to the seven-hole on Wednesday for the matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals and right-hander Kyle Gibson. The 23-year-old will be down near the bottom of the D-backs' lineup for the first time this year as manager Torey Lovullo looks to get last year's National League Rookie of the Year going at the plate. After making his first All-Star team and leading Arizona to the World Series last fall, Carroll has come out cold at the plate in 2024, slashing .215/.324/.269 with a homer, five RBI and eight stolen bases in his first 23 games. While the drop in the batting order is likely just a temporary thing to try and help Carroll get going offensively, it's not what fantasy managers want to see. Outfielder Pavin Smith is hitting leadoff after driving in six on Tuesday.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. This appears to be a routine rest day for the young slugger against left-hander Steven Matz. The 23-year-old is off to a slow start to the season, but fantasy managers shouldn't lose hope. Possibly a rest day will help Carroll get back on track. Randal Grichuk, Jake McCarthy, and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. will cover the outfield during Tuesday's game.
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (wrist) collided with teammate Jake McCarthy in the outfield on Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals, and Carroll was down on the ground for a moment before getting up and jogging off. Manager Torey Lovullo said Carroll fell on his left wrist but that no X-rays were done and the outfielder would be in the lineup on Monday versus the visiting Chicago Cubs. The 23-year-old finished Sunday's game going 1-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base and is now hitting .233 (14-for-60) with a homer, four RBI and five stolen bases in his first 15 games in 2024. The reigning National League Rookie of the Year hasn't hit his stride yet this year at the plate but should remain in all fantasy lineups this week after his injury scare on Sunday.

Corbin Carroll went from being a prospect to a fantasy stud in 2023. Carroll helped the Diamondbacks to an improbable run to the World Series, hitting .285/.362/.506 with 25 homers, 76 RBI, 116 runs and 54 stolen bases in 155 games. Carroll's speed is his main asset with a 30.1 ft/sec average sprint speed ranking in the 99th percentile. He showed enough power to avoid being merely a speedster. The Diamondbacks have also bolstered their roster so there's reason to believe Carroll can match or better last season's RBI total. His .268 xBA does suggest there could be some regression but Carroll's speed allows him to leg out the infield hits so another .280-.290 batting average isn't out of the question. And when he does beat out those infield hits, he'll keep flying on the bases. His 8.8% BB% is good enough to get him on base enough to make the most of his speed. Carroll is only 23 years old and is heading into his second full season in the Majors. There's every reason to believe he can improve. Even a repeat of his 2023 numbers would justify using a top-five pick on him this draft season.
