Ketel Marte’s sudden stint on the injured list has fans and teammates scratching their heads—after skipping a game against the Red Sox without explanation, the Diamondbacks’ star second baseman now battles upper hamstring and knee inflammation. An MRI revealed the issue, and he’s been injected as part of a recovery plan. While his agent and team brass say talks were productive, this isn’t the first time Marte’s absence has raised eyebrows. With Arizona ten games back in the division but just one behind a wild-card spot, losing his .249 batting average, 21 homers, and 67 RBIs over 118 games is a major blow. Team president calls the situation “bizarre,” but everyone’s hoping this short-term setback won’t derail their playoff push.
