McCarthy went 3-for-5 with a steal and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old drew the start in left field and made the most of it, producing his first three-hit performance of the season. McCarthy picked up his sixth steal of the season and third of the month in this contest. The Arizona outfielder is mired in a part-time role but has played well since the All-Star break, batting .325 (13-for-40) with four runs scored and two RBI across 13 games.

McCarthy went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 4-3 loss to Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy extended his hitting streak to a modest three games, and it was just his second multi-RBI effort over 41 games this season. It's been a tough year for the speedy outfielder, who has a dismal .560 OPS in 2025 and was sent down to the minor leagues at one point, but he's fared a bit better at the plate recently in his part-time role. Over his last 15 outings (44 at-bats), McCarthy is hitting .273 with two home runs, three doubles, two RBI and two stolen bases.

McCarthy is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
The left-handed-hitting McCarthy had been included in the lineup in each of Arizona's last three games against right-handed starting pitchers, but his playing time could be more limited moving forward after the Diamondbacks welcomed Alek Thomas back from the bereavement list Sunday. In Monday's matchup with Tigers righty Troy Melton, Thomas will join an outfield that includes Corbin Carroll and Lourdes Gurriel, while Adrian Del Castillo will get the nod at designated hitter over McCarthy.

McCarthy is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
After Corbin Carroll was placed on the injured list June 24 due to a fractured wrist, McCarthy initially noticed a spike in playing time, but he's faded into more of a fourth-outfielder role of late. The lefty-hitting McCarthy will be on the bench for the fifth time in Arizona's last seven games, with two of those absences coming against right-handed starting pitchers.

McCarthy went 2-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy singled twice and extended a hit streak to seven contests, during which he's gone 8-for-26 (.308) with one walk, one triple, two home runs and six RBI. This has been a much better version of the player seen in April (.073/.170/.098), and it looks like McCarthy will stick with the Diamondbacks even when Corbin Carroll (wrist) is ready to come off the 10-day injured list.

McCarthy went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy has hit safely in six straight games, going 6-for-21 (.286) with three extra-base hits in that span. Two of those knocks have been homers, including his go-ahead blast in the fourth inning of Tuesday's win. McCarthy has two homers, eight RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases over 73 plate appearances, but he's still hitting just .136 overall despite his recent success at the plate.

McCarthy went 1-for-4 with a triple and an RBI in Sunday's 6-4 loss to Miami.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy put the Diamondbacks on the board, delivering a run with a second-inning triple to tie the game at 1-1. It was his fifth consecutive start since being called up from Triple-A Reno and fourth straight game getting on base. McCarthy's first stint this season in the majors was marked by an inability to get on base (.170 OBP), but with Corbin Carroll (wrist) on the mend over the next couple of weeks, McCarthy should get plenty of opportunities to show that earlier performance was a fluke.

McCarthy went 1-for-1 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 9-8 loss to the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy got his first homer of the season in his 17th game, and he also picked up his second steal. The outfielder has settled into a strong-side platoon role in right field in the absence of Corbin Carroll (wrist). McCarthy and Randal Grichuk look set to share the position, but McCarthy has the platoon advantage, though he has struggled in the majors this year. He's batting .100 with two extra-base hits, four RBI and four runs scored over 57 plate appearances so far, including going 2-for-9 over three games since returning to the majors.

McCarthy started in right field and went 1-for-4 in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy started in right field for both games since being called up from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, when Arizona placed Corbin Carroll (wrist) on the 10-day injured list. McCarthy is a potential threat to steal bases if he can get on base with any regularity. However, he wasn't productive during a stint with Arizona earlier this season, going 3-for-41 (.073) with a .170 on-base percentage. McCarthy performed well at Reno -- as he typically does -- recording 12 steals with a .401 OBP over 49 games.

The Diamondbacks recalled McCarthy from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old was demoted to Reno in late April after batting .073 (3-for-41) through 14 games, but he'll receive another chance in the majors with Corbin Carroll landing on the injured list due to a fractured wrist. McCarthy has been productive at Triple-A this season with 12 steals, a homer and a .314/.401/.440 slash line in 237 plate appearances. He's starting in right field Tuesday against the White Sox and could be a regular contributor in Arizona's outfield while Carroll is sidelined.
