Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Sitting in second straight game
McCarthy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.
The Rockies have faced right-handed starters in every game so far this season, but that hasn't been enough for the left-handed-hitting McCarthy to hold down a full-time role. After struggling to a .120/.185/.200 batting line through his first 28 plate appearances with the Rockies, McCarthy will stay on the bench for a second straight game. The slumping Jordan Beck (.268 OPS in 27 plate appearances) will also hit the bench, with both he and McCarthy having started to cede more opportunities to Troy Johnston and Edouard Julien.

Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Sitting versus righty
McCarthy is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Astros.
McCarthy batted leadoff in each of the Rockies' first five games this season, but he's seen his role reduced since then. The outfielder has started only three of the past six tilts and has been down in the No. 8 spot in the batting order for all of those starts. Jordan Beck will cover left field for the Rockies on Tuesday.

Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Running often
McCarthy stole a base and scored a run in Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.
McCarthy was out of the lineup for the first time this season, but he entered the game in the eighth inning as a pinch runner. He immediately swiped second base and then came around to score the tying run. McCarthy is now 4-for-4 on the basepaths despite collecting only two hits across 19 at-bats to begin the campaign.

Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Receiving afternoon off
McCarthy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.
McCarthy will get a breather Wednesday after he had started in the outfield and batted leadoff in each of the Rockies' first five games, going a collective 2-for-18 with an RBI and three stolen bases over that stretch. The left-handed-hitting McCarthy could be left out of the lineup against southpaws, but he looks like he'll be a regular presence atop the batting order versus right-handed pitching.

Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Competing for starting role
McCarthy is expected to compete with Mickey Moniak to start in right field to begin the 2026 season, Kyle Newman of the Denver Post reports.
The Rockies acquired McCarthy this offseason but have a versatile roster, so he could face significant competition for the starting role in right field. Moniak may be the primary designated hitter against right-handed pitching, so there could be room for both to start, but Willi Castro, Troy Johnston and Tyler Freeman also figure to factor in at a corner outfield spot. Most importantly, McCarthy will need to bounce back as a hitter to maintain a regular role after posting only a .592 OPS across 222 plate appearances with the Diamondbacks in 2025.

Rockies' Jake McCarthy: Dealt to Rockies
The Diamondbacks traded McCarthy to the Rockies on Saturday in exchange for Josh Grosz.
McCarthy appeared in just 67 games for the Diamondbacks during 2025 and finished the season with a career-low .592 OPS across 222 plate appearances. Moving to Coors Field should help the 28-year-old's chances of bouncing back offensively in 2026, and he'll likely have more opportunities to start in the outfield with the Rockies as well -- primarily against right-handed starters.

Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Agrees to $1.5 million deal
McCarthy agreed to a one-year, $1.5 million deal with the Diamondbacs to avoid arbitration Thursday, Jack Sommers of DBacks on SI reports.
McCarthy has been mentioned as a trade candidate this offseason, but he's stuck with the Diamondbacks thus far. He currently projects to serve on the strong side of a platoon in left field, though he'll need to improve significantly to retain that role after posting a 60 wRC+ across 222 plate appearances in 2025.

Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Potential trade candidate
According to sources, McCarthy or Alek Thomas will likely be traded during the offseason, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
The Diamondbacks would experience a cost savings by moving one of these arbitration-eligible center fielders and using a younger player as the backup. McCarthy has been the more dangerous hitter, while Thomas is considered the better glove. Among the potential replacements are Blaze Alexander, Jorge Barrosa and Tim Tawa. Jordan Lawlar, who is blocked at shortstop by Geraldo Perdomo and didn't handle third base well during a September cameo in 2025, has played a handful of games in center field during winter ball and is also an option.

Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Pops fourth homer
McCarthy went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.
This was McCarthy's first homer since Aug. 19 versus the Guardians. He hit .194 (12-for-62) over 21 games between long balls, including just 3-for-18 (.167) in his last seven contests. The outfielder has produced a lackluster .207/.251/.343 slash line with four homers, 20 RBI, 18 runs scored and six stolen bases over 214 plate appearances in the majors this year, a massive step down from hitting .285 with a .749 OPS in 2024.

Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Racks up three hits in win
McCarthy went 3-for-4 with a double and one run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Phillies.
McCarthy had gone just 1-for-16 over his previous five games. The outfielder has filled a strong-side platoon role down the stretch as the Diamondbacks' primary option in left field. He's up to a .209/.255/.335 slash line with three home runs, 19 RBI, 17 runs scored, seven doubles, four triples and six stolen bases over 207 plate appearances this season.

Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Resting against righty
McCarthy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
McCarthy appears to have emerged as a strong-side platoon player in left field, but he'll give way to Jorge Barrosa on Sunday even with the Twins sending a righty (Bailey Ober) to the hill. Since the start of September, McCarthy is hitting .261 with seven RBI.
