Ketel Marte’s Absence and Team Response | MLB News

from MLB Baseball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Ketel Marte’s sudden absence from today’s game has sent shockwaves through the clubhouse, as he’s now on the restricted list due to a personal issue — though he’s reportedly fine. The team had contingency plans ready, adjusting lineup decisions earlier this week when his availability became uncertain. While this marks the first attendance-related hiccup for Marte — unlike his previous restricted list stint last year — the focus quickly shifted from concern to game-day resilience after confirming his well-being. Despite a tough loss, the squad is already eyeing tomorrow’s comeback, ready to support Marte as he returns — and to keep pushing forward as a unit.
