Corbin Carroll Starting to Heat Up at the Plate?
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is hitting just .179 (7-for-39) in 11 games so far in June, but he might be on the verge of breaking out in 2026. Carroll has hits in five of his last six games and has gone 6-for-20 (.300) during that stretch with a homer, two doubles, an RBI, four runs scored, three walks, and two strikeouts in 24 plate appearances. Still, the 25-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year and two-time All-Star has underwhelmed relative to his standards so far in 2026. Through 137 at-bats, Carroll is slashing .263/.364/.496 but with an .861 OPS, five home runs, 20 RBI, 25 runs scored, and four stolen bases. He went 1-for-19 at the plate to begin the month of May. Carroll currently sits in the 72nd percentile in xwOBA, but he's also uncharacteristically in the 57th percentile in hard-hit rate on the year. He's striking out more than usual, but the good news is that he's still getting on base plenty and taking his free passes. Now is the time for fantasy managers to buy low on Carroll, who had the first 30-30 season of his career in 2025.
