Ketel Marte News
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman/outfielder Ketel Marte (hand) is back at second base and is hitting third in the batting order on Thursday against Chicago Cubs right-hander Marcus Stroman. Marte missed the previous two games with left hand soreness, but he's back in the lineup on Thursday. The 28-year-old switch-hitter has been red-hot at the plate in May, slashing .375/.464/.625 with a 1.089 OPS, one homer, five RBI, 10 runs scored and a steal in 48 at-bats over 14 games. Hopefully, he'll be able to pick up right where he left off after missing the last two games. Overall, Marte is hitting .231/.308/.392 with two home runs, 11 RBI, 15 runs and two stolen bases in 36 games.
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman/outfielder Ketel Marte (hand) is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Marte was scratched from the second game of a doubleheader on Tuesday with a sore left hand, and he'll miss another game as a result. Jake Hager is getting another start at the keystone and is hitting ninth on Wednesday against Dodgers right-hander Walker Buehler. Marte got off to a slow start but has picked things up recently and is now batting .231/.308/.392 with two home runs, 11 RBI, 15 runs scored and two stolen bases through his first 36 games of the season. Fantasy managers should ignore Hager in DFS contests Wednesday.
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (undisclosed) was scratched from the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was a late scratch for undisclosed reasons. The 28-year-old came off the bench for Game 1 and went 2-for-2 with two RBI. It's unknown at this time if Marte is dealing with an injury. Jake Hager replaced him in the lineup as the team's starting second baseman and is batting eighth. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation as Marte was out of the lineup for both contests of Tuesday's doubleheader. Stay tuned.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Ketel Marte hit .318 with a .377 on-base percentage, 14 home runs, and two stolen bases in 374 plate appearances last season. The 28-year-old missed time due to a hamstring strain but was immensely productive when on the field. Despite being sidelined due to injury, some of Marte's advanced hitting metrics like barrel rate, xBA, and xwOBA were in the same ballpark as they were during his breakout 2019 campaign. Of course, numbers like barrel rate, xBA, and xwOBA aren't stats that are used in scoring for fantasy, but it's worth noting that he hit .329 with 32 home runs and 10 stolen bases in 638 plate appearances in that aforementioned 2019 campaign. Provided he plays a full slate of games, Marte has a real shot of replicating those 2019 metrics if he carries over his form from last season. Only seven players have hit at least .300 with a minimum of 30 home runs and 10 steals in a season since 2016. Marte is one of those seven and the only one who can play the infield. The versatile Marte currently has an average draft position of 85 right now according to NFBC. If you can draft him around pick there, you'll be taking a player with immense upside who could end up being a steal.
