The Diamondbacks placed Marte on the 10-day injured list Monday with a sprained left ankle.

Marte initially injured the ankle more than a week ago and has been in and out of the lineup since then. He aggravated the injury during a pinch-hit appearance Sunday versus the Rays, and the Diamondbacks have finally decided to make a roster move with the 30-year-old. No imaging is planned for Marte, per Steve Gilbert of MLB.com, and he could have a good chance to return from the IL on Aug. 29 when his 10 days are up. Kevin Newman and Blaze Alexander should fill in at second base while Marte is sidelined.
