Angels 7, Diamondbacks 1<\/h2>\n

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Mar. 21) \u2014 The keyword for Tuesday at Arizona Diamondbacks<\/a> spring training camp was \u201cdamp.\u201d It was gloomy and cloudy all day, with spells of light rain leading up to the game against the Los Angeles Angels<\/a>. But there were other clouds over camp as an injury report came in. Catcher Carson Kelly<\/a><\/strong>, the presumptive primary catcher, has a forearm fracture and will miss several weeks. Merrill Kelly<\/a><\/strong> started for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic Championship Game against Japan. Zach Davies<\/a><\/strong> started for the Diamondbacks in their game against the Angels. And Dominic Fletcher<\/a><\/strong> gave observers a bit of a scare in the bottom of the ninth.<\/p>\n

Injury Report and Updates<\/h3>\n

Carson Kelly, who left the game Monday after being hit by a pitch on his right forearm, is going to be out several weeks. His diagnosis is a right distal ulna fracture. The ulna is the forearm bone lining up with the pinky (think: P-U), and the \u201cdistal\u201d section is in the third closest to the wrist. According to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com, Kelly told reporters after Monday\u2019s game that it hurt \u201creally badly\u201d and that his concern was \u201cnot minimal.\u201d Manager Torey Lovullo<\/a><\/strong> said the injury was \u201cvery unfortunate.\u201d He noted that injuries like this, which was similar to the Jose Altuve<\/a><\/strong> injury in the World Baseball Classic, \u201ccan happen anywhere at any time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lovullo added, \u201cIt was a tough day for me yesterday to get this news that he was going to get x-rayed and something was wrong.\u201d Kelly has \u201cbattled a ton of injury,\u201d in the words of Lovullo. Lovullo added, \u201cYou get to a certain point with your athletes where they\u2019re like your kids. When you have to continue to watch them work through these moments and get frustrated and get healthy then have to do all over again, it’s tough. Very tough.\u201d<\/p>\n

There is no timeframe for the recovery as of yet, but these types of injuries typically take at least eight weeks. In the meantime, Lovullo said, \u201cthere is an opportunity for somebody to do their job and show us what they can do. We have to evaluate the next level of player to get in that situation and help us win baseball games.\u201d<\/p>\n

Catching Situation<\/h4>\n

When acquiring Gabriel Moreno<\/a><\/strong> in the Daulton Varsho<\/a><\/strong> Trade, the plan from the team was to ease Moreno into the full-time role out from behind Kelly. The injury to Kelly forces these plans to change. Lovullo said that, now, easing Moreno into the role \u201cmight not be a possibility.\u201d He added, \u201cWe haven\u2019t come up with any secondary plans, but we\u2019re talking about several things.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jose Herrera<\/a><\/strong> started 2022 as the backup catcher but was optioned to Triple-A Reno August 9. When asked if that gave Herrera a \u201cleg up\u201d on the others, Lovullo said, \u201cHe\u2019s been here and is part of the culture and this organization. (Herrera) has done everything we’ve asked him to from the time he \u2026became a big leaguer.\u201d Familiarity with the staff will definitely be a consideration. However, Lovullo concluded with, \u201cThere\u2019s no leg up. It\u2019s neutral. We\u2019re throwing everything back into the pool to figure out what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other Injuries<\/h4>\n

Jake McCarthy<\/a><\/strong> is still out while battling personal illness. Lovullo said, \u201cI think he\u2019s gonna be back on Thursday and most likely in the lineup Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n

Outfielder Dominic Fletcher took a fastball off the kneecap while batting in the bottom of the ninth. Lovullo said, \u201cI think he\u2019s fine.\u201d Fletcher left the game simply because it was cold and pinch-runner Jakey Josepha<\/a><\/strong> was \u201cvery eager\u201d to get in the game, according to Lovullo.<\/p>\n

Right-hander Corbin Martin<\/a><\/strong>, who has a right lat tendon tear, will miss the entire 2023 season. He also missed some of 2019 and all of 2020 with Tommy John surgery. (Note: Update given Sunday via Steve Gilbert.)<\/em><\/p>\n

World Baseball Classic<\/h3>\n

As noted in the introduction, right-hander Merrill Kelly started the World Baseball Classic Championship Game for Team USA against Japan. Lovullo said, \u201cWe\u2019re all gonna be watching very closely, cheering and rooting for Merrill. It’s an incredible accomplishment for him. He’s ready for this challenge. Merrill can jump in any environment and execute pitches at a very high level. That’s my scouting report on him. But I am so proud of Merrill. I’m so proud of his ability and where he’s gone. He’s pitching in on maybe one of the biggest stages. And I can’t wait to see how it turns out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Third-base coach Tony Perezchica<\/a><\/strong> and infield coordinator Gil Velazquez<\/a><\/strong> have been away as members of Team Mexico\u2019s coaching staff. Center fielder Alek Thomas<\/a><\/strong> played for Team Mexico in the tournament. Mexico bowed out Monday night after a walk-off loss to Japan in the semifinals. Lovullo expects all three to be back in town Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Zach Davies<\/h3>\n

Starting pitcher Zach Davies tossed 81 pitches \u2014 53 for strikes \u2014 across 3 2\/3 innings. He left the game with one out in the fourth and reentered to face two batters in the fifth. Davies struck out the first before surrendering an infield single to the second. On the game, Davies gave up five runs on seven hits and one homer while walking one and striking out six.<\/p>\n

Davies was \u201cefficient,\u201d according to Lovullo. \u201cHe pitched into the fifth inning and got his pitch count up to where we needed to.\u201d Lovullo said Davies made \u201ca couple of mistakes,\u201d noting the hanging breaking ball in the first that Angels outfielder Jo Adell<\/a><\/strong> clobbered halfway up the berm beyond the left-field fence. But Lovullo also said Davies was \u201cmaking pitches.\u201d He added, \u201cThere was good separation between his fastball and his secondary stuff. (He just) got nicked up when he made some mistakes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davies said he \u201cfelt pretty good\u201d but was \u201cstill kind of working on things.\u201d He added, \u201cBut we\u2019re getting down to crunch time, and you have to be ready for the season. It only takes a few guys smacking you around to go back to what you know best. Curveball to Adell I probably won\u2019t throw in-season after the pitch I threw beforehand, but it was a chance to get the curveball into the game. If I execute it better, it\u2019s a different situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking Ahead<\/h3>\n

The Diamondbacks have a day off Wednesday before returning to split-squad action Thursday. One group will stay home to face the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a>, while the other will head to Sloan Park in Mesa to face the Chicago Cubs<\/a>. First pitch of the former will be at 1:10, and first pitch of the latter will be at 1:05. Starting pitchers for both games have yet to be announced.<\/p>\n
