Injury
The 35-year-old Diamondbacks third baseman is dealing with a back issue that emerged in early June.
Nolan Arenado is sidelined by a back injury, the Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman confirmed in early June. Arenado, 35, was batting .275 with 5 home runs and 17 RBI over 29 games through the ailment’s onset.
The injury marks a significant blow to Arizona’s infield depth at the midseason stretch. No return timeline was specified in the report.
Arenado carries 14 years of MLB experience and remains one of baseball’s premier defensive third basemen, though lower-back issues are a familiar concern for players in their mid-to-late 30s.
