Plays Friday McCarthy (illness) started in right field and went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Friday's spring game against the Reds.

Impact McCarthy returned to action after missing nearly a week with an illness. He stole his second base of the spring after swiping 23 bags over 99 games in 2022. The 25-year-old will get in some plate appearances in the final days of camp to get his swing timing down.

The outfielder that was such a fantasy surprise in the second half of 2022 is 5-for-29 (.172) in Cactus League play.

Collects another steal McCarthy went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Giants.

Impact McCarthy hit a go-ahead single in the 10th inning and later stole third as part of a double-steal with Christian Walker. The theft was McCarthy's fifth in his last seven games, and he's now gone 9-for-19 in his last four contests. The outfielder has shown strong contact-hitting skills in 2022, striking out at a 20.5 percent rate while batting .295. He's added modest power and good speed as well, logging eight home runs, 23 steals, 43 RBI, 53 runs scored and an .800 OPS through 341 plate appearances.

Keeps running Friday McCarthy went 3-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 10-4 loss to the Giants.

Impact McCarthy finished an excellent September with 10 steals in 12 attempts across 23 games. He also hit .299 (26-for-87) this month, though he put up only four extra-base hits. The speedy outfielder's surge has him up to a .291/.353/.441 slash line with 22 steals, eight home runs, 41 RBI and 51 runs scored through 94 contests.

OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Two more steals McCarthy went 2-for-5 with two stolen bases and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-2 extra-inning win over Houston.

Impact McCarthy, who stole his 20th and 21st bases of the season, is putting the final touches on a surprising fantasy year. He bounced between the majors and minors over the first half, but the outfielder is having a second half that put him on the radar. He's slashing .305/.372/.443 with 17 steals and 32 RBI over 58 games since the break. While the Diamondbacks showcased their outfield of the future this season -- Corbin Carroll, Alek Thomas and Daulton Varsho -- McCarthy emerged as a legitimate candidate for a starting job in 2023.

Hitless in return McCarthy started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Tuesday's 10-2 loss to the Astros.

Impact This marked McCarthy's first game back from the bereavement list. He reclaimed his normal No. 3 spot in the batting order, which has been his home the last 16 games. The news of the organization's demotion of Alek Thomas to Triple-A Reno shouldn't impact McCarthy too much. The club activated Pavin Smith from the IL to replace Thomas, giving the team the same amount of outfielders vying for starts.

Returns from bereavement The Diamondbacks reinstated McCarthy from the bereavement list Monday.

Impact This news came out just before Arizona's lineup, which McCarthy obviously won't be included in. He must miss a minimum of three days and a maximum of seven days, so McCarthy won't play this weekend against the Giants.

Collects two hits in return McCarthy started in left field and went 2-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 2-0 loss to the Padres.

Impact McCarthy returned to the lineup after getting a breather Friday against left-hander Blake Snell and had two of Arizona's five hits. The Diamondbacks' offense has dried up on their current homestand, with Saturday's shutout being the third in six games at Chase Field. McCarthy, however, remains as consistent as he's been all second half. He's 6-for-19 during the homestand and batting .339 since the break.

Heads to bench McCarthy will sit Friday against the Padres.

Impact McCarthy's off day comes against lefty Blake Snell, but it isn't necessarily a sign that he's now stuck in a platoon, as he'd started against each of the last eight southpaws the Diamondbacks faced. He's been on fire lately, hitting .366/.416/.606 with four homers and eight steals in his last 18 games, but it will be Daulton Varsho who starts in right field Friday.
