Corbin Carroll Out Against A Lefty
Corbin Carroll will take a seat on Sunday at Wrigley Field against the hosting Chicago Cubs and left-hander Shota Imanaga. With Carroll resting against a tough southpaw, veteran outfielder Randal Grichuk will draw into the lineup in right field and will hit in the two-hole against Imanaga. who he has never faced in his career. Carroll, last year's National League Rookie of the Year, was extremely disappointing in the first half of the season outside of his stolen bases and runs scored. He's starting to show some signs of life at the plate, but he's still hit just .200 (11-for-55) with four home runs, three doubles, 12 RBI and five stolen bases in 14 games in the month of July. Carroll has been more productive of late than he has for most of the first half of the season, and fantasy managers will be hoping that can continue in the second half.

Corbin Carroll Hits 10th Homer On Monday
Corbin Carroll turned in an excellent game in a 5-4 loss to the New York Mets on Monday. Carroll went 2-for-4 with a homer, a walk, two runs, and an RBI, but it wasn't quite enough in the close loss to New York. The star outfielder kicked off the scoring in the game with a solo homer in the bottom of the first inning. Carroll is now hitting .287 with 10 homers, 28 runs, 27 RBI, and five stolen bases across 150 at-bats this season. While he isn't stealing bases at the rate he did in the 2023 and 2024 seasons when he combined to swipe 89 bags, Carroll remains one of the top fantasy outfielders in all leagues.

Corbin Carroll Keeps Raking With Two More Homers
Corbin Carroll continues to rake as he launched two more homers in a 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday. Carroll went 2-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI, and a walk in Wednesday's victory. He launched his first home run of the night in the bottom of the first and belted another shot in the seventh frame to give Arizona the lead. This game brings the 24-year-old superstar to a .327 AVG and .1.097 OPS with 23 runs, nine homers, 22 RBI, and four steals on the season. He has been absolutely electric in the early going and is looking like a candidate for NL MVP. This year, taking a slight risk on him in the late-first or early-second rounds of drafts looks like a massive hit for fantasy managers.

Corbin Carroll Stays Hot Versus Cubs
Corbin Carroll has been on another level at the plate over the last few weeks. On Saturday, Carroll started off the game with a home run off right-hander Ben Brown in the opening frame. It would kick off what would be a 3-for-4 day at the plate for Carroll. He extended his hitting streak to 12 games with that three-hit performance. Carroll has put his sluggish 2024 season behind him and is looking like an MVP-type player right now. Carroll obviously needs to be rostered and started in all fantasy formats as he has been one of the best players in the league.

Corbin Carroll Extends Hitting Streak, Steals Three Bases
Corbin Carroll has been one of the hottest hitters early in the 2025 season. He went 1-for-5 in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Miami Marlins to extend his hitting streak to 10 games and also added an RBI, two runs scored and three stolen bases despite striking out three times. The 24-year-old stole both second and third base in the first inning. The former first-rounder is now hitting .321 with a 1.065 OPS, six home runs, 17 RBI, 18 runs scored and four stolen bases in his first 19 games in 2025. During his 10-game hitting streak, Carroll has gone 17-for-44 (.386) with 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and nine extra-base hits. Carroll was the National League Rookie of the Year in 2023 before struggling to a .231 batting average last year, although he still hit 22 homers and stole 35 bases. If he keeps this up all year, he could easily be the fantasy MVP.
