Ketel Marte on restricted list again as Dbacks face Red Sox
Summary

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte was placed on the restricted list prior to the game against the Boston Red Sox on August 17. This follows an earlier placement in June 2025 after a burglary at his home. Reports indicate Marte returned to Arizona while teammates are in Boston, with speculation around an MRI on his knee. Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo expressed surprise at Marte's lack of communication and hinted that Marte may have chosen not to participate. Former teammate Archie Bradley suggested there could be deeper issues affecting Marte's absence.
