Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is expected to miss significant time this spring after breaking his right hamate bone during a live batting practice session, MLB.com reported on Wednesday.

An exact timetable for Carroll's recovery was not immediately known.

Carroll, 25, is reportedly scheduled to undergo surgery on Wednesday and will miss the upcoming World Baseball Classic. Team USA's first game of the 2026 competition is against Brazil in Pool B action on March 6 in Houston.

Carroll batted .259 with a majors-best 17 triples to go along with 31 homers and 84 RBIs last season.

The National League Rookie of the Year in 2023 and two-time All-Star, Carroll is hitting .258 with 82 homers and 248 RBIs in 488 career games with the Diamondbacks, who picked him in the first round of the 2019 MLB Draft.
