Corbin Carroll Close To Returning
2 mins agoArizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (back) is getting pretty close to returning to Cactus League action, according to manager Torey Lovullo. The Diamondbacks were initially hoping that Carroll would return to the field on Wednesday, but they have elected to give him another day off to completely put his back injury in the rearview mirror. The 24-year-old was initially removed from Sunday's Cactus League contest against the Texas Rangers as a precaution. Barring a setback with his back, Carroll should be ready for Opening Day in late March. Fantasy managers shouldn't have any hesitation in taking Carroll early in drafts as an elite outfielder. The National League Rookie of the Year in 2023 was unable to bounce back from a slow start last year and finished with a .231 average, but he still managed 22 homers, 74 RBI, 35 steals and 121 runs scored in 158 games played.
