Diamondbacks News
The Diamondbacks suffered another setback with a 9-4 loss to the Red Sox, marking their third consecutive defeat as they slip further from the playoff picture, now two games out of the wild card. Adding to the turmoil, Ketel Marte's mysterious absence from Fenway Park leaves fans scratching their heads, with manager Torey Lovullo emphasizing the need to get Marte 'right.' Meanwhile, Justin Martinez triumphantly returned from his second Tommy John surgery, providing a glimmer of hope in an otherwise bleak landscape. While Gabriel Moreno has finally begun to tap into his potential, the team’s depth is being severely tested with injuries mounting and 11 players on the IL. With the season hanging in the balance, the Diamondbacks must regroup and find a way to turn things around before it's too late.
