Thu Feb 2912:24Ketel Marte Stays Hot, Collects Two More Hits Tuesday
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte went 2-for-3 with a single, a triple, and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-3 Cactus League loss to the Texas Rangers. That makes it three straight spring games with a hit for Marte, going 5-for-7 (.714) with a walk and he's also been hit by a pitch (.778 OBP). Marte had a hit in 16 straight postseason games in 2023 before going 0-for-2 (with three walks) in the final game of the World Series, so it looks like he hasn't missed a beat. Last year's NLCS MVP projects for another productive season at the plate although, as far as second baseman go, you can find others who will steal many more than the eight stolen by Marte last season. NFBC ADP has the 30-year-old going around pick 116, but RotoBaller likes him at 100th overall.

Wed Oct 25 202301:18Ketel Marte Named NLCS MVP
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte didn't have a great Game 7 at all in the 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies, but he was still named the National League Championship Series MVP. Marte finished Tuesday's winner-take-all contest 1-for-5 with a double and four strikeouts to extend his playoff hitting streak to 16 games. It's the longest streak by any player to start his postseason career in MLB history, and just one game shy of the overall record. Only three players -- Manny Ramirez, Derek Jeter and Hank Bauer -- have recorded a hit in 17 straight playoff games. The 30-year-old Dominican switch-hitter went 12-for-31 (.387) with a triple, four doubles, three RBI, one stolen base and two runs scored in the NLCS to send the Snakes to their first World Series appearance since 2001.

Fri Oct 20 202319:16Ketel Marte Remains In Leadoff Spot
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte will stay in the leadoff spot ahead of Friday's Game 4 against the Philadelphia Phillies. The D-Backs will stick with the same lineup that they used in Game 3. In theory, it makes sense considering they won Game 3 and they will face a second straight left-handed starting pitcher. Marte was solid in the leadoff spot last game. He went 3-for-5 with a walkoff RBI single in the ninth inning.

Tue Sep 26 202317:15Ketel Marte Feeling Better, Returns Against White Sox
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (illness) is back at second base and is hitting second in the batting order on Tuesday against right-hander Jose Urena and the Chicago White Sox. Marte had missed the last two games due to a stomach bug, but he made a pinch-hitting appearance in Monday's loss to the New York Yankees and is now back in the starting nine for the Snakes in a very important game as they look to stay in one of the final two wild-card spots in the National League. The 29-year-old switch-hitter has been a versatile fantasy asset all year long, hitting .279/.361/.489 with an .850 OPS, 24 home runs, 80 RBI, seven stolen bases and 91 runs scored in 552 at-bats. Get him back into your lineups for the final week of the regular season.

Tue Sep 26 202312:05Ketel Marte Walks In Pinch-Hitting Appearance
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (illness) didn't start Monday's 6-4 loss to the New York Yankees in the Bronx, but he entered the contest as a pinch-hitter and drew a walk. After pinch-hitting, Marte stayed in the game to play second base for the conclusion of the loss. The 29-year-old has missed the last two games due to a stomach bug, but his appearance as a pinch-hitter on Monday likely means he'll return to action on Tuesday for the start of a series against the Chicago White Sox. If Marte is in the starting lineup on Tuesday, fantasy managers still competing for a championship in the final week of the regular season will want to get him back into their lineups.

Mon Sep 25 202312:05Ketel Marte Absent From Lineup On Monday
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (illness) remains out of the starting lineup on Monday against the New York Yankees. Geraldo Perdomo is starting at the keystone and will hit in the nine-hole against Yankees right-hander Clarke Schmidt. Marte will miss his second straight game while being under the weather, but he's apparently feeling better and expects to return to action on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox. The 29-year-old has been a must-start in fantasy lineups this year and is finishing his 2023 season strong with a hot month of September. Overall in 552 at-bats this year, he's slashing .279/.360/.489 with 24 home runs, 80 RBI, seven stolen bases and 91 runs scored. Marte is a big reason why the D-backs are in the thick of the race for a wild-card spot in the National League.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (knee) is back at second base and is batting leadoff on Monday against the New York Mets and left-hander Jose Quintana. A sore right knee kept Marte out of the lineup on Sunday, but it was never a serious injury and he'll be back on the diamond to begin the week.

Sat Sep 9 202316:41Ketel Marte Removed Early On Saturday
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (knee) was removed early during Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs. The 29-year-old fouled a ball off his knee during the opening frame. He remained in the contest, but was ultimately lifted in the seventh inning due to an apparent knee issue. The expectation is that Marte will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. Geraldo Perdomo entered the contest after Marte exited, so he could see more playing time, assuming Marte misses time. Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update on his status.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (quadriceps) left Sunday's game early against the Minnesota Twins with left-quadriceps tightness and he's considered day-to-day, according to the team. Before departing on Sunday, Marte went 0-for-3.

Thu Jul 6 202317:47Ketel Marte Back In Starting Lineup Against Mets
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (back) is back at the keystone and is hitting second in the batting order on Thursday against the New York Mets and right-hander Carlos Carrasco. Marte has been held out of the lineup a few days this week due to lower-back pain, but he entered as a pinch-hitter late in Wednesday's game and stayed in the contest to play defense at second base. Fantasy managers will want to get the 29-year-old Dominican switch-hitter back in their starting lineups immediately for Thursday's slate of games. He's currently hitting .284 (87-for-306) with 15 long balls, 13 doubles, four triples, 44 RBI, six stolen bases and 61 runs scored in 80 games played.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (back) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the New York Mets. This marks the second game in a row that Marte has missed due to an ongoing back issue. It doesn't sound like a serious issue, so the team is just going to give him some extra days to rest. The All-Star break is right around the corner, so the D-Backs don't want to take any chances. Geraldo Perdomo will bat leadoff and cover second base versus right-hander Kodai Senga on Wednesday.

Sun Jun 18 202314:05Ketel Marte Absent From Sunday's Lineup
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte is absent from the lineup on Sunday against the Cleveland Guardians.

He's slashing .289/.365/.486 with 10 home runs, 30 RBI, and six stolen bases over 253 at-bats. Geraldo Perdomo is taking over at the keystone and leading off against Tanner Bibee and the Guardians.

Thu Jun 15 202314:29Ketel Marte Returns To Starting Lineup Thursday
Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (back) is back in the starting lineup Thursday against the Philadelphia Phillies. Marte got the night off with a sore back Wednesday against left-hander Ranger Suarez, but he will get back at it Thursday afternoon against Phillies righty Aaron Nola. Marte is in the midst of a resurgent season, as he's hitting .280 with nine home runs, six stolen bases, and an .826 OPS across 63 games played. While he's been a big-time fantasy asset at a thin second-base position, Marte's .335 xwOBA is below his .356 wOBA while he sports middling hard-hit and barrel rates, potentially leading to regression moving forward.
