Heading to bench Sunday Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.
Impact Marte started the first three games of the series versus Los Angeles and went 4-for-10 with a double and three homers, but he'll take a seat for Sunday's finale. Tim Tawa will start at the keystone and bat eighth for Arizona against righty Tony Gonsolin.

XBHs in three straight Marte went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Dodgers.
Impact Marte's productive groundout in the third inning produced Arizona's first run, then he scored the team's final run after an eighth-inning double. He appears to have his timing down after going 2-for-16 in his first five outings coming off the injured list. Marte has logged extra-base hits in three straight contests, going 4-for-10 with three home runs, one double, four RBI and five runs.

Oh Ohtani! Dodgers star hits 3-run homer in late rally in 14-11 victory over Diamondbacks
The Dodgers and Diamondbacks played one of the wildest games of the season in the desert, combining for 25 runs, 26 hits, two blown leads of at least three runs and six homersMAY 10
Powers up with two homers Marte went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs, two walks and three total runs scored in Friday's 14-11 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Marte went yard in the first and eighth innings. All three of his homers this season have come over the last two games, and it looks like he's starting to settle back in after missing a month to a hamstring injury. The second baseman is batting .292 with four RBI, 11 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 59 plate appearances. It wouldn't be surprising to see him run less given the hamstring concern, but he should continue to offer solid production in the other counting stats while occupying a near-everyday role.

Ohtani hits 3-run homer in 9th to cap Dodgers' wild comeback in 14-11 win over Diamondbacks

Goes yard Thursday Marte went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.
Impact Marte hit his first homer of the season, stretching Arizona's lead to 5-0 in the fifth inning. The second baseman missed nearly a month due to a hamstring issue, so he's likely still working on his timing at the plate. Through 14 contests, he's batting .267 with a .789 OPS, two RBI, eight runs scored and no stolen bases over 54 plate appearances. Marte should handle a starting role most of the time, but Tim Tawa has gotten some extra looks at the keystone while Marte gets regular rest to avoid aggravating his hamstring, which has been a recurring concern in his career.

Receiving rest Wednesday Marte is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.
Impact Tim Tawa will draw the start at second base Wednesday while Marte gets some rest for the day game after a night game. Since making his return from the injured list Friday after missing nearly a month due to a strained left hamstring, Marte has started in four of the Diamondbacks' ensuing six games and has gone 2-for-15 with two walks and a run.

Getting rest Sunday Marte is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Impact Marte returned from the injured list Friday and started at second base both of the past two days, going 1-for-7 with a walk. The 31-year-old hasn't reported any setbacks following his one-month stay on the IL due to a hamstring strain, so his absence Sunday is most likely a pre-planned rest day. Tim Tawa will draw the start at second base in his stead.

Returns to action Marte went 1-for-4 in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Phillies.
Impact Marte was activated off the 10-day injured earlier in the day and was in the lineup at second base and leading off against a left-hander. The initial plan for Marte, who is coming off a hamstring injury, is see time at in the field and designated hitter, but at either spot he should bat first or second in the order.

Joining team on road trip Marte (hamstring) is travelling with the Diamondbacks on their six-game road trip beginning Tuesday, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Impact Marte has been on the injured list since April 5 with a left hamstring strain, but he now appears to be on the cusp of returning to Arizona's lineup. The 31-year-old is not expected to play in the team's three-game set in New York versus the Mets, but he is slated to make his return when the team travels to Philadelphia for three games beginning Friday. Prior to getting hurt, Marte produced a .346 average with three doubles, an RBI and six runs scored over 26 at-bats in eight games this season.

Plays in extended spring game Marte (hamstring) hit a pair of home runs and played three innings in the field in an extended spring training game Saturday, Kellan Olson of Arizona Sports reports.
Impact Arizona manager Torey Lovullo was enthused by Marte's progress in his rehab and hasn't ruled out the second baseman returning for the second end of a two-city road trip next week. The Diamondbacks begin a series Tuesday against the Mets then move on to Philadelphia for the weekend. Alternatively, Marte could remain back in Arizona and rejoin the team for a seven-game homestand beginning the following Monday, May 5. Lovullo kicked around the idea of easing Marte back into the lineup as a designated hitter against lefties only. The organization is keenly aware of Marte's history of hamstring issues.
