The Arizona Diamondbacks activated All-Star second baseman Ketel Marte (ankle) from the 10-day injured list and optioned outfielder Jorge Barrosa to Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move. The Diamondbacks haven't posted their starting lineup yet for Friday's series opener at Minute Maid Park against the Houston Astros, but Marte should be back at either second base or as the designated hitter against Astros left-hander Framber Valdez. The 30-year-old has been sidelined since mid-August after aggravating a low-grade ankle sprain. The matchup on Friday makes Marte a fade in DFS in his first game back, but fantasy managers in redraft leagues need to get him back into their lineups immediately. The Dominican infielder is in the midst of a career year in 2024 and will return to a .298/.370/.560 slash line with a .930 OPS, 30 homers, 81 RBI and six stolen bases.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (hamstring) took five at-bats and played four innings in the field at second base on Monday, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Marte took the day off on Tuesday and is scheduled to build up to six or seven innings defensively on Wednesday, and he's still likely to come off the injured list this weekend. The 31-year-old All-Star has been on the injured list with a strained left hamstring since April 5 but figures to return to the team's starting lineup this weekend on the road for a series against the Philadelphia Phillies. When he returns, fantasy managers will be stoked to get him right back in their starting lineups. Before his hamstring injury, Marte had picked right up where he left off a year ago, slashing .346/.469/.462 in 26 at-bats, although he's still searching for his first home run of 2025.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (hamstring) was packing in the clubhouse on Sunday and confirmed that he will play in Philadelphia, according to Jack Sommers of SI.com. Arizona is expected to make the trip to Philly for three games starting on Friday, May 2. Marte has been sidelined since April 5 with a hamstring strain after only playing in eight games in 2025. He'll look to reclaim his title as the best fantasy second baseman after he had a breakout 2024 to the tune of a .292/.372/.560 slash line with 36 home runs.--Jeremy Heist - RotoBaller

Although Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (hamstring) isn't expected to return from a left-hamstring strain for another few weeks, he has started doing baseball activities, according to Arizona Sports' Alex Weiner. Marte has started to take ground balls and is taking swings in the batting cage. Barring setbacks, the D-backs hope Marte can return in late April or early May, according to manager Torey Lovullo. The 2024 MVP finalist started this season hitting a robust .346 with three doubles and six runs scored in eight games prior to injuring his hamstring running out a double on April 4 against the Washington Nationals. Hamstring injuries have been a problem for the 31-year-old All-Star, as he was on the injured list twice with hammy issues in both of his legs in 2021. So far with Marte out, rookie Tim Tawa and Garrett Hampson have split time at the keystone in Arizona.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said that a realistic timeline for second baseman Ketel Marte (hamstring) to return from the injured list is late April or shortly after that. Lovullo recently said that Marte will mess a "series of weeks" after suffering a Grade 1 left-hamstring strain rounding the bases last Friday, but as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks during his rehab, he could be back for fantasy managers before the calendar flips to May. It's good news for the 31-year-old, but fantasy managers will need to remain patient and keep him stashed in an IL spot for the time being. The two-time All-Star was off to a strong start at the plate, too, going 9-for-26 (.346), although he had yet to hit a homer in eight games. Until Marte is able to return, the D-backs will mix and match at second base with Garrett Hampson and rookie Tim Tawa.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
