‘Confusing’ injury sends Diamondbacks’ Corbin Carroll to IL after X-ray fiasco
NY Post
The Diamondbacks may need to throw their X-ray machine in the dumpster and invest in another.
Star outfielder Corbin Carroll was hit by a pitch last Wednesday and while initial X-rays came back negative, he missed the next four games as the team waited for the swelling to lessen.
He supposedly was available to pinch-hit in that time, though he did not appear in any games.
The Diamondbacks sent Carroll for an MRI on Monday in Chicago, per MLB.com, and this exam revealed what the initial X-rays had missed: a chip fracture in his left wrist.
Arizona will soon place Carroll on the injured list as this nightmare stretch of injuries continues for the franchise already without its ace (Corbin Burnes), closer (Justin Martinez) and catcher (Gabriel Moreno).
And this marks the team’s second X-ray fiasco in short time.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
