Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Receiving break Sunday
Rotowire
Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
There's been no indication he's injured, so it's likely just a maintenance day for Marte after he started the previous seven games. Ildemaro Vargas will shift to the keystone while Jose Fernandez picks up a start at first base.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Scratched Friday
Rotowire
Marte was scratched from the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets due to an illness, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
Ildemaro Vargas will shift to second base with Marte out of the lineup, and Jose Fernandez will enter the starting nine to fill the opening at first.
Marte is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.
It's a rare day off for Marte, who had made 12 consecutive starts. Ildemaro Vargas will cover second base Friday, while Jose Fernandez will play first base and Adrian Del Castillo will slot in at designated hitter.
Marte went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Brewers.
Marte has gone 13-for-47 (.277) over his last 11 contests, logging four multi-hit efforts in that span. The second baseman has just two extra-base hits in that sample, but it's encouraging to see him make more steady contact after a slow start to the campaign. Marte is batting .239 with a .693 OPS, five homers, 11 RBI, 17 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 28 contests. It's worth monitoring to see if his power shows up more consistently as the season progresses, as he's hit at least 25 homers in three straight seasons.
