Carlos Santana Out of Tuesday's Lineup
Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Carlos Santana (groin) is out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the hosting New York Mets after he was pulled from Sunday's game early against the Atlanta Braves due to right-groin tightness, according to MLB.com. Ildemaro Vargas will start at first base on Tuesday and bat seventh against Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta. Vargas is hitless in his one career at-bat against Peralta with an RBI. Santana, 39, underwent an MRI exam on Monday during the team's off day, but it's unclear what the results were. For now, consider the veteran switch-hitting infielder to be day-to-day. The D-backs are already without Pavin Smith (elbow), who is on the 10-day injured list. Santana has looked his age at the plate through his first eight games of the 2026 season, going just 2-for-24 (.083) with two walks and eight strikeouts.
