Ketel Marte, Arizona Diamondbacks, Day-to-Day With Lower Body Stiffness, Expected to Play

Ketel Marte has been dealing with lower-body stiffness but is likely to play in the upcoming game against the Colorado Rockies on May 16 at Chase Field. Earlier this season, Marte was on the injured list due to a strained left hamstring, which kept him out for several games in April. His performance this season includes a batting average of .262 with 5 home runs and 8 RBIs over 20 games.

Marte's current stats show a recent streak of power, hitting 5 home runs in his last 7 games with an OPS of 1.25. If Marte needs rest, Tim Tawa or Jordan Lawlar could see more action at second base. In the previous game against the San Francisco Giants, Marte contributed significantly with 2 home runs and 3 RBIs, highlighting his importance to the lineup.
