Diamondbacks Place Star Corbin Carroll on Injured List for Wrist Fracture

News summary

The Arizona Diamondbacks are facing significant challenges due to a spate of injuries, most notably to outfielder Corbin Carroll, who was placed on the injured list with a chip fracture in his left wrist after being hit by a pitch. Despite initial clean X-rays, further imaging revealed the fracture, sidelining Carroll for several weeks and removing a key offensive contributor from the lineup. Carroll, who is batting .255 with 20 home runs this season, will be replaced by Jake McCarthy, called up from Triple-A Reno. The Diamondbacks are also missing other pivotal players due to injuries, including pitchers Corbin Burnes, A.J. Puk, and Justin Martinez, as well as catcher Gabriel Moreno. Manager Torey Lovullo and GM Mike Hazen have expressed cautious optimism about Carroll's injury being nondisplaced and stable, but the team will have to adjust significantly to maintain competitiveness in the NL West and the wild card race, where they currently sit 2.5 games out. The injury to Carroll, combined with the team's pitching woes, presents a major obstacle as the Diamondbacks aim to stay in playoff contention.
