Diamondbacks Move Ketel Marte to IL After in-Person Meeting
- On Thursday, the Arizona Diamondbacks reinstated second baseman Ketel Marte from the restricted list and transferred him to the 10-day injured list due to left knee inflammation, General Manager Mike Hazen said.
- Marte had been on the restricted list since Monday, August 17, after unexpectedly failing to report to Fenway Park in Boston. His camp later described the situation as a "personal issue," and he will not be paid for the three days spent on the restricted list.
- Following the no-show, Marte met with General Manager Mike Hazen, manager Torey Lovullo, and agent Charisse Espinosa-Dash at Salt River Fields on Thursday. Hazen described the meeting as "productive," though he declined to provide specifics.
- An MRI revealed inflammation in the knee and hamstring, prompting Marte to receive an injection to help the inflammation subside. Because he was on the restricted list, his injured list stint cannot be backdated, with the earliest return date August 30.
- The Diamondbacks, currently one game behind the San Diego Padres for the final National League wild-card spot, host the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. Marte's absence comes as the team pushes for postseason contention.
