Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Activated from injured list
Rotowire
The Diamondbacks reinstated Carroll (wrist) from the injured list Saturday.
Carroll has been on the injured list with a chip fracture in his left wrist since June 24. After playing a rehab game in the Arizona Complex League and going 0-for-2 with two walks, he's been given the green light to return to the D-backs' lineup. He'll slide right back in as Arizona's primary right fielder, and Tim Tawa will head to Triple-A Reno in order to make room on the active roster.
Carroll (wrist) began a rehab assignment with the Arizona Complex League Diamondbacks on Thursday, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
Carroll took dry swings Tuesday, but this is a more significant step in his recovery. He has previously stated his goal was to return before the All-Star break, and this appears to keep him on track to do so. Carroll is eligible to be activated from the injured list Friday, but he seems likely to require a few more games in the minors before rejoining the Diamondbacks.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Growing concern about hand injury
Rotowire
Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Monday that the level of concern regarding Carroll's left hand injury is "probably a little higher than it has been over the past couple of days," Casey Drottar of MLB.com reports.
Lovullo and the Diamondbacks are still awaiting results of the MRI on Carroll's bruised left hand, but optimism that the outfielder can avoid the 10-day injured list seems to be waning. The club could have more on Carroll's status after Monday's game against the White Sox. Carroll is out of the lineup for a fifth straight game and hasn't been used off the bench since being hit on the hand by a pitch last Wednesday. However, Lovullo noted before Monday's game that Carroll could be available in "small spurts and small segments," indicating that he may be available to pinch run, per Drottar.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: MRI on tap
Rotowire
Manager Torey Lovullo said Carroll (hand), who is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Colorado, will undergo an MRI in Chicago on Monday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.
The outfielder was apparently available to pinch hit Saturday while his bruised left hand continues to show improvement, but the Diamondbacks will exercise caution and send him for additional imaging Monday. Carroll is sitting for a fourth straight game Sunday and should be considered day-to-day heading into the series opener against the White Sox.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Set to sit Friday
Rotowire
Manager Torey Lovullo said on MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM that Carroll (hand) is expected to be out of the lineup Friday against the Rockies.
The skipper also said that Carroll is "very close" to returning and could be convinced to insert the outfielder into the starting nine Friday, but for now he's not penciled in to start the series opener in Colorado. The 24-year-old was hit by a pitch on the left hand Wednesday, but he was diagnosed with a bruise after X-rays came back negative and should be back in action soon.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Legs out two triples
Rotowire
Carroll went 2-for-5 with two triples, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-3 win over Seattle.

He has a league-leading eight triples through 66 games and is zeroing in on a third consecutive season of double-digit triples. Carroll ranks sixth in MLB in slugging (.581) and 10th in OPS (.921).

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Playing through tight hamstring
Rotowire
Carroll has been dealing with a tight hamstring but was in the Diamondbacks' lineup Monday and went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and a walk in a 8-4 win over the Mariners in 11 innings, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
The hamstring issue offers an explanation as to why Carroll was out of the lineup for consecutive games over the weekend against the Reds, although he did appear as a pinch hitter in one of those contests. While Carroll appears set to continue playing through the hamstring issue, it's possible he will be less aggressive on the basepaths. Carroll was unsuccessful in his lone stolen base attempt in June and has just one steal over his last 19 games.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Clubs 19th homer
Rotowire
Carroll went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 8-4 extra-innings win over the Mariners.
Carroll opened the scoring by leading off the bottom of the first inning with his homer. The outfielder has gone 6-for-20 (.300) with three homers and six RBI over seven games in June, but he was on the bench for consecutive contests over the weekend in Cincinnati, likely in effort to get his bat going. He has just one multi-hit effort over his last 20 games, batting a meager .181 (13-for-72) despite his nine extra-base hits in that span. For the season, the outfielder is at a .258/.339/.569 slash line with 19 homers, 41 RBI, 50 runs scored and 10 stolen bases across 65 contests.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Steals two more bases Saturday
Rotowire
Carroll went 1-for-5 with a walk, a run, an RBI and two stolen bases in a loss to the Rockies on Saturday.
Carroll's speed led to a run in the first inning, as he walked to lead off the frame, stole second and scored on a Ketel Marte single. Carroll added another theft after hitting a run-scoring single in the fourth frame to give him his second multi-steal performance of the campaign. The star outfielder has notched at least one stolen base in three consecutive contests and has, so far at least, bounced back in a big way from a bit of a down season last year that saw him finish with a .750 OPS. Through 215 plate appearances in 2025, Carroll is slashing .285/.358/.601 with 14 home runs, 38 runs, 32 RBI and nine stolen bases.
