Marte’s Absence Rocks Diamondbacks | Raleigh News

Ketel Marte, Arizona’s star shortstop and three-time All-Star, vanished from the team’s game against Boston — sparking concern and mystery. Manager Torey Lovullo confirmed Marte is dealing with a personal issue and has been placed on the restricted list, though details remain sealed. Lovullo said he spoke with Marte but got little clarity — and it’s unknown if Marte is still in Boston. The team, tight-knit and resilient, vows to keep playing and winning despite the disruption. Even Marte’s close friend and teammate Geraldo Perdomo admits he’s in the dark. GM Mike Hazen called the absence “unfortunate,” noting this isn’t Marte’s first rodeo — last year, he missed games after his home was broken into, forcing him to flee to the Dominican Republic amid emotional turmoil. The Diamondbacks press on, determined to win their next game against the Red Sox.
