Corbin Carroll Not In Starting Lineup On Sunday
4 months agoArizona 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.
