Ketel Marte is expected to return to the Arizona Diamondbacks in roughly two weeks after he mysteriously left the team before a game in Boston. Multiple outlets report that the 32-year-old All-Star second baseman has not publicly clarified why he is absent, and his whereabouts have been the subject of ongoing questions.
The reports note that Marte’s departure occurs during a playoff race and that, as of the latest coverage, he has not yet addressed his teammates about the circumstances of his leaving. While the team has discussed a return plan, the explanation for the disappearance has not been described in full detail across coverage.
One report also highlights the manager’s efforts to manage the situation publicly, including a request directed at fans. Overall, the outlets align on the timing—about two weeks—and the core issue: Marte’s sudden absence and the lack of a complete explanation as he nears his return.
