Sun Apr 20 | 09:04 | Corbin Carroll Stays Hot Versus Cubs |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll has been on another level at the plate over the last few weeks. On Saturday, Carroll started off the game with a home run off right-hander Ben Brown in the opening frame. It would kick off what would be a 3-for-4 day at the plate for Carroll. He extended his hitting streak to 12 games with that three-hit performance. Carroll has put his sluggish 2024 season behind him and is looking like an MVP-type player right now. Carroll obviously needs to be rostered and started in all fantasy formats as he has been one of the best players in the league. |

Thu Apr 17 | 21:04 | Corbin Carroll Extends Hitting Streak, Steals Three Bases |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll has been one of the hottest hitters early in the 2025 season. He went 1-for-5 in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Miami Marlins to extend his hitting streak to 10 games and also added an RBI, two runs scored and three stolen bases despite striking out three times. The 24-year-old stole both second and third base in the first inning. The former first-rounder is now hitting .321 with a 1.065 OPS, six home runs, 17 RBI, 18 runs scored and four stolen bases in his first 19 games in 2025. During his 10-game hitting streak, Carroll has gone 17-for-44 (.386) with 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and nine extra-base hits. Carroll was the National League Rookie of the Year in 2023 before struggling to a .231 batting average last year, although he still hit 22 homers and stole 35 bases. If he keeps this up all year, he could easily be the fantasy MVP. |

Wed Apr 16 | 00:09 | Corbin Carroll Hits Grand Slam, Plates Five Tuesday |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll continued his power surge in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Marlins. Carroll went 2-for-5 with a double, a grand slam, and five RBI. The 24-year-old clobbered a sixth-inning George Soriano fastball into the right-field upper deck to put the D-backs ahead 10-1. Surprisingly, Carroll's main fantasy attribute so far in 2025 has switched from speed to power, as he is slashing .338/.423/.735 with six home runs, 15 RBI, and one stolen base in one attempt. This may not have been what fantasy managers expected from him, but they can't complain about his overall production. His speed is still a major threat, and he has plenty of time to accumulate stolen bases. |

Wed Mar 5 | 16:03 | Corbin Carroll Close To Returning |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (back) is getting pretty close to returning to Cactus League action, according to manager Torey Lovullo. The Diamondbacks were initially hoping that Carroll would return to the field on Wednesday, but they have elected to give him another day off to completely put his back injury in the rearview mirror. The 24-year-old was initially removed from Sunday's Cactus League contest against the Texas Rangers as a precaution. Barring a setback with his back, Carroll should be ready for Opening Day in late March. Fantasy managers shouldn't have any hesitation in taking Carroll early in drafts as an elite outfielder. The National League Rookie of the Year in 2023 was unable to bounce back from a slow start last year and finished with a .231 average, but he still managed 22 homers, 74 RBI, 35 steals and 121 runs scored in 158 games played. |

Mon Mar 3 | 14:51 | Corbin Carroll Considered Day-To-Day |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (back) is considered day-to-day in camp, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Back tightness caused the Diamondbacks to pull Carroll from Sunday's Cactus League game against the Texas Rangers. The 24-year-old isn't very concerned about the injury, so it sounds as though he could be back in spring action later this week, barring a setback. Before his back tightened up, Carroll has gone 6-for-12 early in Cactus League play with three long balls and two stolen bases. For now, fantasy managers should have no hesitation about taking him as a top-five fantasy outfielder in drafts. He's currently ranked as the No. 2 fantasy outfielder at RotoBaller, behind only Aaron Judge. Carroll won the National League Rookie of the Year in 2023. Despite a near 50-point drop in average in 2024, he still had 22 homers, 74 RBI and 35 steals in 158 games. |

Sun Mar 2 | 19:40 | Corbin Carroll Removed From Sunday's Game |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (back) was removed from Sunday's spring training contest due to lower-back tightness. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status over the next few days as this move could have been precautionary. Before exiting the contest, Carroll went 0-for-2 at the plate with a strikeout. During the early part of spring training, the former top prospect has been flashed elite power as he has gone deep three times and held a 1.821 OPS across five games. The 24 year-old has noted that he focused on continuing to improve the swing adjustments he made during the second half of the 2024 season. After the Midsummer classic last season, Carroll carried an elite .919 OPS which was a significant increase compared to the .635 OPS he held in the first-half. When healthy, fantasy managers should view Carroll as an elite five-category contributor in all formats with the upside to showcase career-high power production. |

Wed Feb 26 | 07:57 | Corbin Carroll Adjusting His Swing |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll has adjusted his swing. The young outfielder has modified his positioning in the batter's box. He began to make this adjustment during the second half of last season and focused on refining it during the winter. The 24-year-old already saw significant improvements when he made the modification last season and could see an even greater one following a full offseason. During the first half of the 2024 season, Carroll posted an underwhelming .212/.301/.334 line with five home runs and 18 stolen bases. However, during the second half, the former top prospect posted a .258/.351/.568 line with 17 long balls and 17 swiped bags. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his power improvement during camp, but given the adjustments last season, he could be poised a career season in 2025. The 24-year-old should be viewed as a high-end outfielder in all formats. |

Fri Feb 14 | 21:22 | Corbin Carroll Fine After Getting Hit By Pitch |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll appears to have avoided any serious injuries after a incident earlier on Friday. The speedy outfielder was reportedly hit by a pitch while taking batting practice. Whenever that happens there is always immediate concern of injury, but Carroll appears to be fine. Carroll was reportedly playing catch later in the day, so fantasy managers shouldn't have anything to worry about right now. Carroll has played over 300 games during the last two seasons and has been a significant factor in the D-Backs lineup. Fantasy managers saw Carroll's statistics take a dip last season, but he was still a productive player despite some offensive struggles. |

Sun Sep 22 2024 | 12:41 | Corbin Carroll Sitting On Sunday |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is not in Sunday's lineup as the Diamondbacks look to clinch a four-game sweep over the Milwaukee Brewers. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to any updates regarding Carroll as this move may be injury related. As a result Pavin Smith will cover right field and bat in Carroll's typical leadoff spot. After posting a mere .202 AVG through the first half of the season, Carroll has begun to turn the corner in the second half carrying a much-improved .259/.352/.585 line. Since the start of September he has held a .243/.367/.432 line with four doubles, two triples, and two home runs. Smith is worth a look in DFS as he will face Milwaukee right-hander Frankie Montas who is carrying a 4.50 ERA into Sunday's tilt. |

Wed Sep 18 2024 | 23:19 | Corbin Carroll Homers Twice, Drives In Three |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll belted a pair of home runs in Wednesday's 9-4 win over the Rockies, walking once, driving in three runs, and scoring three times in the contest as well.

The 24-year-old hit .212 with five home runs and 18 steals in 93 games prior to the All-Star break, but since then he's flipped a switch, hitting .274 with 16 home runs and 11 steals in 52 games. The reigning N.L. Rookie of the Year has turned it on at the right time for fantasy managers and now owns a .235-21-70-115-29 line on the season with a .329 wOBA and 110 wRC+. |

Wed Aug 21 2024 | 00:40 | Corbin Carroll Hits 14th Homer Of Season Tuesday |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll had a good day at the plate in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Marlins. Carroll went 2-for-4 with a single, a solo home run, and a strikeout. The 24-year-old drove a fifth-inning Edward Cabrera fastball to the opposite field, placing it over the left-field fence for his 14th long ball of the season. Carroll's season numbers still leave a lot to be desired. However, he has picked things up in the second half of the season, slashing .252/.339/.612 with nine HR, 31 runs scored, 19 RBI, and three stolen bases in 103 at-bats. The lack of steals is disappointing, but fantasy managers can't complain too much given the amount of power Carroll has provided. |

Sun Aug 11 2024 | 16:09 | Corbin Carroll Not In Starting Lineup On Sunday |
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is sitting out on Sunday evening as the Diamondbacks get set to face the Philadelphia Phillies. The 2023 All-Star and National League Rookie of the Year has had an underwhelming sophomore season, slashing .217/.308/.374 with 10 home runs and 44 RBI in 114 games (423 at-bats). This decision is not all that surprising, as Carroll is slashing .184/.268/.280 against lefties this season, and Cristopher Sanchez, one of the league's best, is starting for the Phillies. Carroll has been hot of late with an OPS of 1.037 in his last seven games, so he could possibly enter the game in the later innings as a pinch-hitter against a righty. |

Since the All-Star break, he has gone 12-for-51 (.235) with three home runs, four triples, seven RBI, seven walks, 12 strikeouts and two stolen bases in 14 games played.

Carroll has been more productive of late than he has for most of the first half of the season, and fantasy managers will be hoping that can continue in the second half. |

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Braves.
