Diamondbacks Activate Ketel Marte from the IL
Marte Returns to Boost Sluggish Diamondbacks Offense
The Arizona Diamondbacks have activated All-Star second baseman Ketel Marte from the injured list. Marte missed the team's first 29 games due to a hamstring injury, and his return is a major boost to the team, who are currently 14-15.
Marte's Impact on the Diamondbacks
Marte is one of the best young players in the league, and his return to the lineup should provide a much-needed boost to the Diamondbacks' offense. Marte is a career .289 hitter with an on-base percentage of .353 and a slugging percentage of .470. He is also a good defender at second base.
With Marte back in the lineup, the Diamondbacks now have one of the most potent offenses in the National League. Marte will bat second in the lineup behind leadoff hitter Daulton Varsho, and he should provide plenty of protection for cleanup hitter Christian Walker.
Diamondbacks Hope to Make a Run with Marte Back
The Diamondbacks are currently in fourth place in the NL West, but they are only 3.5 games behind the first-place San Diego Padres. With Marte back in the lineup, the Diamondbacks believe they can make a run at the division title.
The Diamondbacks will face the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night in Marte's first game back. Marte is expected to play second base and bat second in the lineup.
