Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Placed on IL with fractured wrist
The Diamondbacks placed Carroll on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a fractured left wrist.
Carroll suffered the injury on a hit-by-pitch last Wednesday, and while initial tests were negative, subsequent exams revealed the unfortunate news. The Diamondbacks have not offered a timetable for Carroll's return, but the outfielder seems like a good bet to remain out through the All-Star break. Jake McCarthy has been recalled to take Carroll's roster spot and could see starts in right field along with Randal Grichuk.

Dylan Crews RF | WAS
Nationals' Dylan Crews: Traveling with team
Crews (oblique) is accompanying the Nationals on a West Coast road trip which runs through June 29, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
While being allowed to travel with the team is encouraging, the 23-year-old outfielder doesn't appear to be close to coming off the IL as he recovers from an oblique strain. Crews is still limited to running on a treadmill at about 85-90 percent intensity, and he isn't yet taking full swings with a bat or doing on-field work. "I know he's itching to hit some balls, but we've got to really be careful right now, be cautious," manager Dave Martinez said Monday. "He's on a really good path right now. Everything looks good. We don't want to rush him. We want to make sure that when he comes out of this, he's 100 percent." Crews has been sidelined since May 20, and a firm target date for his return won't come into focus until he's ready to begin a rehab assignment.

Juan Soto LF | NYM
Mets' Juan Soto: Swats 17th homer
Soto went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's loss to Atlanta.
He provided the Mets' only offense when he took Spencer Schwellenbach deep in the sixth inning. Nine of Soto's 17 homers on the season have come since May 31, a stretch of 22 games in which he's slashing .324/.485/.730 with 17 RBI, 21 runs and an elite 22:13 BB:K.

Pirates' Tommy Pham: Smacks first homer
Pham went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Monday against the Brewers.
Pham has had a disastrous season in Pittsburgh, and he finally managed to slug his first home run of the campaign in the fourth inning Monday. He had recorded only four extra-base hits across his first 51 games entering Sunday's contest against the Rangers, but he has combined for three extra-base hits in the two contests since. Pham has lost his starting role in left field to a combination of Adam Frazier and Alexander Canario, though this brief hot stretch could earn him some additional looks in the lineup.

Fernando Tatis Jr. RF | SD
Padres' Fernando Tatis: Mashes monster homer in loss
Tatis went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Nationals on Monday.
Tatis notched just one hit, but he certainly made it count, slugging a 435-foot, three-run shot in the ninth inning. The star outfielder appears to be getting his power stroke back, belting two home runs over his past three contests following a 21-game homer drought. Tatis is still batting jut .125 (3-for-24) over his past seven contests, however.

Nationals' James Wood: Enjoys big game against former club
Wood went 3-for-5 with a home run, three total runs and four total RBI in a 10-6 win against the Padres on Monday.
Wood was a second-round draft pick by the Padres in 2021 before being moved to Washington in the Juan Soto trade in 2022. That made Monday a revenge game of sorts for the blossoming young outfielder, and he came through with a run-scoring single in the first inning and a three-run blast in the eighth. Wood is enjoying an All-Star caliber campaign, slashing .284/.379/.569 with 22 home runs, 61 RBI and nine stolen bases on the season. He's one of six major-leaguers with at least 20 homers and 60 RBI on the campaign so far.

Lars Nootbaar LF | ARI
Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Launches 10th homer
Nootbaar went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run against the Cubs in Monday's 8-2 victory.
Nootbaar got the scoring started in the contest with a two-run blast in the fourth inning, and his homer became contagious, as St. Louis slugged three more two-run shots over the following two frames. It was the 10th home run of the season for Nootbaar, marking the fourth straight campaign he has reached double-digit long balls. The fifth-year outfielder has an excellent chance of surpassing his career-best mark of 14 homers, which he reached in both 2022 and 2023.

Ronald Acuna Jr. RF | ATL
Braves' Ronald Acuna: Goes deep, swipes bag
Acuna went 2-for-5 with a solo homer and a stolen base in Monday's win against the Mets.
Acuna singled and stole second in the first inning before knocking a solo shot in the third. He went deep for the ninth time and stole his third bag of the year. It was the first time since September of 2023 that Acuna had a home run and a steal in the same contest. He owns a ridiculous .396/.500/.713 slash line through 122 plate appearances.

Jake McCarthy LF | COL
Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Set for promotion
McCarthy is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Reno, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
While the move isn't official just yet, McCarthy will be promoted to take the place of Corbin Carroll (wrist), who is expected to land on the 10-day injured list. McCarthy will presumably operate as a bench bat after hitting just .073 with three RBI, one stolen base and two runs scored during his first big-league stint of the 2025 campaign, which ended April 19.

Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Will require stint on IL
Carroll is expected to be placed on the 10-day injured list after his MRI and CT results revealed a chip fracture in his left wrist, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
The club is still seeking additional medical opinions on Carroll's injury, so a timetable for his return isn't available at this time. Randal Grichuk and Tim Tawa should be in line for more opportunities in right field while Carroll is on the mend.
