SCOTTSDALE — Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is considered day-to-day after leaving Sunday’s Cactus League game at the Texas Rangers with lower back tightness, manager Torey Lovullo said on Monday.
Carroll received Monday off, while the club does not play on Tuesday. He will continue to receive treatment and be evaluated to jump back in later this week.
“It’s just the tightness, there’s no imaging that was necessary and we felt like with some rest and getting back into his rhythm and routine … he’s going to be fine,” Lovullo said.
Carroll is off to a scorching start this spring, hitting 6-for-12 with three home runs and two steals in five games.

Diamondbacks reliever Kendall Graveman underwent imaging for back tightness, and Lovullo said the tests came back clean.
“There’s nothing that is going to be alarming enough for there to be a major setback,” Lovullo said. “Just going to step away to recuperate and get that mid back tightness out of there.
“He’s in the treatment phase, and he’ll come out as soon as he possibly can. We have a lot of time to recover from this injury. We know he’s working hard, and we’ll get him back out there as soon as possible.”
Graveman signed a one-year deal at the start of spring training to add depth to Arizona’s bullpen. The veteran reliever missed all of 2024 with shoulder surgery.
The right-hander worked a 3.12 ERA with eight saves back in 2023. He has yet to make his Cactus League debut for the Diamondbacks.
Jordan Montgomery steps onto the mound
Left-hander Jordan Montgomery took on live hitters for the first time this spring on Monday at Salt River Fields. He faced catcher Aramis Garcia three times and first baseman Pavin Smith twice.
The next step for him is to be determined, but he will either throw another live batting practice session or get in a game.
Montgomery showed up to camp with a strained left index finger, so his ramp up to the regular season has been a bit behind his fellow starting pitchers.
“I thought after the first four or five pitches, he started to find the zone in and follow the glove and did a good job,” Lovullo said. “There were, in particular, some good breaking balls I saw him throw that had good shape and good finish in the hitting zone. It’s hard to evaluate. I don’t want it to move too fast. I want to be sensitive to this entire process and tell you he’s on the right track.”
