Top Diamondbacks players to watch
Outfielder Corbin Carroll remains the undisputed engine of the Diamondbacks’ offense. His elite power-speed combination continues to disrupt opposing pitchers, cementing his status as a perennial MVP threat. Around the bag, Ketel Marte provides the switch-hitting consistency and veteran presence that anchors this young lineup.
The Arizona rotation is equally formidable, spearheaded by the powerhouse duo of Zac Gallen and Corbin Burnes. These two high-earning aces possess the precision to dismantle any lineup they face. If you need a refresher on why “The Milkman” remains so dangerous, I highly recommend watching Gallen’s 2025 highlights to see his best stuff from last season.
