News about Ketel Marte

The Yankees are now 5-1 following their heavy 7-0 loss in Arizona earlier this week and a 5-2 victory over the D'Backs on Monday. This season was the first time in franchise history that the pinstripes won their five games of the season on the road. What's more, this season is the fifth time in franchise history that the Yankees have started with a 5-0 record. The Yankees' last season in which they had five straight victories was 32 years ago, when they opened the season with a 6-0 record.

Edwin Diaz has had a year from hell to claim and prove himself worthy of the best deal for a reliever in Major League Baseball history. However, he also has to prove that he is still the best closer to his own family. Diaz, a 30-year-old flamethrower for the New York Mets, has yet to throw an MLB pitch since signing his five-year, $102 million deal in November 2022, just shy of the end of his second All-Star season. He was showing why Steve Cohen paid the extra to keep him in Queens, beating out Ketel Marte, Jean Segura, and Teoscar Hernandez in the ninth order to exile the Dominican Republic and send his team to the quarterfinals in the following March. He leapt in elation, but as he came to earth, he broke his patellar tendon and ended his season before it had begun.

Only one team will win the trophy that really matters, seven and a half months from now in the World Series. But more than ever since Josh Sborz shocked Ketel Marte to win the Texas Rangers' first championship on November 1, another reward has been given - winning the off-season. In the winter of 2023-24, there were massive salaries, blockbuster trades, and eight new bosses, but now it's spring and the season is expected to begin.

Gabriel Moreno hit a home run and was one of four players to bat in a game as the Arizona Diamondbacks leveled the World Series once more with a 9-1 victory over the Texas Rangers. Moreno's home run opened the scoring in the top of the fourth quarter after he took a solo shot at 413 feet to center field at Globe Life Park in Arlington, Texas. The Diamondbacks will now live in Phoenix, where they will play the next three games if they win their second title.

The Arizona Diamondbacks won their first World Series in 22 years after shockingly defeating the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League Championship Series. Arizona won in Game 7 of the NCLS by 4-2 overturning the Cinderella tale to the grandest stage in baseball. In Game 1 of the World Series, the Diamondbacks will meet the Texas Rangers.

Following a 5-1 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series, the Phillies are set to play the first-ever Game 7 in franchise history. The majority in Philadelphia were unaware that the Phillies had pulled off a victory in the first two games of the season before Arizona was able to fight their way back into it. If the Diamondbacks win, it would be their first appearance in the World Series since 2001.
