Ready to go for Opening Day
Marte (leg) will start at second base and bat leadoff in Thursday's season opener against the Dodgers.
Analyse
Marte had to be scratched from the Diamondbacks' final exhibition contest due to lower-leg soreness earlier in the week, but the minor injury won't keep him from suiting up Opening Day. The switch hitter batted second against right-handers last season, but he'll get a turn in the leadoff spot versus righty Yoshinobu Yamamoto on Thursday.

Back to Cactus League
Marte batted leadoff and went 0-for-3 with a run scored in Friday's spring game against the Brewers.
Analyse
This was Marte's first Cactus League game since returning from the World Baseball Classic. He batted leadoff against a right-hander Friday, which deviates from last year's pattern, when he led off against lefties and batted second against righties. However the order shakes out in 2026, Marte is expected to hit first or second when in the starting lineup.
