Ketel Marte Active, Leading Off on Opening Day

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (lower leg) is in the lineup and batting leadoff for his team's Opening Day matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday. Marte was scratched from Arizona's exhibition finale on Tuesday due to lower-leg soreness, but it appears the 32-year-old has avoided a serious issue. Marte is coming off an excellent 2025 season in which he hit .283/.376/.517 with 28 home runs, 72 RBI, 87 runs scored, and four stolen bases across 556 plate appearances. When healthy, Marte is arguably the premier second baseman in all of baseball. However, the veteran switch-hitter does have a fairly extensive injury history, reaching 600 plate appearances just twice in 11 MLB seasons. Fantasy managers can breathe a bit easier now that Marte is officially good to go for the start of 2026.

Ketel Marte Dealing With Lower-Leg Soreness

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (leg) was scratched from the team's exhibition lineup on Tuesday as a precaution due to what manager Torey Lovullo called lower-leg soreness, according to Arizona Sports' Alex Weiner. "He just felt like 'I'm good, I don't need that at-bat. I'm a little bit sore. So, let me take this time off,'" Lovullo said. "So that made sense to me." There is no concern that Marte will miss Opening Day on Thursday. Fantasy managers should expect to have Marte available through the weekend as the 2026 regular season kicks off. As long as he's healthy, the 32-year-old Dominican infielder is a must-start in all fantasy formats as one of the best second basemen in the game. The three-time All-Star had 28 home runs and 72 RBI in 126 games in 2025 while slashing .283/.376/.517 in 556 plate appearances. Marte does have a history with injuries, but regardless, he's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 2 fantasy second baseman.

Ketel Marte Scratched With Soreness, "No Concern" for Opening Day

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said that second baseman Ketel Marte was scratched from Tuesday's exhibition game against the Cleveland Guardians due to soreness, according to Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports. There is "no concern" about Marte's status for Opening Day on Thursday. Ildemaro Vargas is starting at the keystone on Tuesday against Cleveland with Marte sitting out. The 32-year-old Dominican is the second-ranked fantasy second baseman at RotoBaller, behind only the Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr. In a hitter-friendly home environment in Phoenix, the three-time All-Star has at least 25 home runs in each of the last three years while recording at least 72 RBI as well. Marte's 145 wRC+ led all qualified players at second base in 2025 for the second straight year. Additionally, he has hit .283 over the last three seasons for the D-backs. It doesn't get much better than Marte at the second base position in MLB.

Ketel Marte Remains an Elite Second Base Option Heading into 2026

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte was the subject of trade discussions early this offseason, but ultimately did not end up being moved and will suit up for his 10th season in Arizona in 2026. Marte has firmly established himself as one of the best second basemen in baseball, hitting .283/.376/.517 with 28 home runs, 72 RBI, 87 runs scored, and four stolen bases across 556 plate appearances in 2025. He's posted a walk rate of at least 10.9% in each of the last three seasons and boosted his barrel rate to a career-high 13.5% in 2025. Marte has not reached double-digit steals in a season since 2019, so he does not project as a major speed asset for fantasy managers. He also comes with a spotty track record of health, reaching 600 plate appearances just twice since 2016. Still, the 32-year-old elite production when on the field and profiles as a high-end fantasy second baseman heading into 2026.

Ketel Marte Will Remain With Diamondbacks

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte will remain with the team despite being floated in many trade discussions this offseason, The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal reports. A deal surrounding the star second baseman was described as a long shot, and now Marte will officially stay in Arizona for at least another season. The 32-year-old put up another impressive campaign in 2025, slashing .283/.376/.517 (145 wRC+) with 28 homers, 72 RBI, and four stolen bases over 556 plate appearances and 126 games. Marte is one of only five players with at least 85 home runs to go with a .280 batting average or better over the last three seasons combined, along with Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani, Jose Ramirez, and Bobby Witt Jr. He remains a top-tier fantasy option at second base heading into the 2026 season.

Trade Involving Ketel Marte Remains a "Long Shot"

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte has had his name in many trade discussions throughout the offseason. However, general manager Mike Hazen is expected to move on from the previous trade discussions and plan for Marte to remain on the roster for the 2026 season. According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic, "nothing has changed" regarding a potential trade, and the Diamondbacks have always viewed the likelihood of a trade involving their second baseman as a "long shot." The 32-year-old switch-hitter turned in another impressive campaign in 2025 and was named to his second-straight All-Star Game. Through 126 games, he held a .283/.376/.517 line with 28 home runs and four stolen bases. Marte remains a high-end second baseman heading into 2026, as he should provide elite production in four of the standard categories while chipping in a handful of stolen bases.

Mets Exploring Trade with the Diamondbacks for Ketel Marte

The New York Mets have been busy making moves this offseason, and that continued on Monday when they traded infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil to the Athletics. The Mets are wasting no time looking for this replacement as they've reportedly explored trading for Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Ketel Marte, per MLB Insider Francys Romero. The biggest problem with this move is that Marte would likely have to shift to the outfield in New York, since they have second base locked up after acquiring Marcus Semien earlier this offseason. Marte would likely take over in center field, which is a position he hasn't played in consistently since the 2021 campaign. The Mets seem to be fine with the downgrade in defense with Marte being an elite-level bat. This is nowhere near a done deal, but it will be something to monitor throughout the offseason.

Red Sox More Likely to Land Ketel Marte?

The Boston Red Sox have a stronger chance than the Toronto Blue Jays to acquire Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte, largely because Boston has more MLB-ready starting pitching. The 32-year-old is owed $102.5 million over the next six seasons and is coming off a year where he slashed .283/.376/.517 with 28 home runs and a 145 wRC+. The Red Sox could center a deal around one or both of Payton Tolle and Connelly Early. Tolle impressed in the minors last season, posting a 3.04 ERA, 133 strikeouts, 23 walks, and a 0.99 WHIP across 91 2/3 innings. After a late-summer call-up, he struggled in the majors, recording a 6.06 ERA and a 1.59 WHIP over 16 1/3 innings, but the underlying talent remains evident. Early produced even stronger results. Across AA and AAA, he delivered a 2.60 ERA, 132 strikeouts, and a 1.11 WHIP in 100 1/3 innings. In his brief major-league stint, he was dominant, pitching to a 2.33 ERA with a 36.7% strikeout rate while effectively limiting hard contact. Adding Marte would represent a significant upgrade over Boston's current second baseman, Ceddanne Rafaela, who is better utilized in a super-utility or outfield role.

A Ketel Marte Trade Might Take Time to Develop

The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal writes that a trade of Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star second baseman Ketel Marte might take time for teams to warm to Arizona's asking price, which one rival executive described as a "superstar-type return." Marte is owed a reasonable $102.5 million over the next six seasons, with $41 million deferred and the payouts not starting until 10 years after the money is earned. Any interested team would need to be comfortable with Marte's clubhouse fit and the acquisition cost. Rosenthal adds that the D-backs might need the market to play out for "clubs to become more desperate." The Boston Red Sox are among the teams interested in the switch-hitter, with three unidentified teams also in the mix. Arizona is seeking young pitching, and trading Marte would allow them to clear payroll and inject talent. After the 10th day of the 2026 season, Marte will gain full no-trade protection, so if he's dealt, it will most likely be before the start of next season.

Red Sox Interested in Trading for Ketel Marte

The Boston Red Sox are among the teams interested in trading for Arizona Diamondbacks superstar second baseman Ketel Marte, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Other teams that could be potential fits for Marte include the Seattle Mariners, Pittsburgh Pirates, Tampa Bay Rays, Detroit Tigers, and Toronto Blue Jays. Marte has been involved in trade rumors this offseason, but general manager Mike Hazen recently said that it's unlikely Arizona will move the 32-year-old veteran Dominican. The switch-hitting infielder was one of the big reasons why the D-backs were one of the highest-scoring teams in baseball in 2025, as he slashed .283/.376/.517 with an .893 OPS, 28 home runs, 72 RBI, 87 runs, and four steals in 126 games. Marte's 145 wRC+ led all qualified second basemen for the second straight year.
