Randal Grichuk (ankle) will start in left field and bat third in Thursday’s Cactus League game against the Athletics, per team updates, after a brief soreness hiatus.

Fantasy Impact:

Grichuk’s left ankle soreness paused him for days, but he’s set to start Thursday versus the Athletics, locked in as the Diamondbacks’ lefty-killer for 2025. The 33-year-old’s ready. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should roster him, banking on his veteran bat for platoon value and solid production against left-handed pitching in Arizona’s outfield early this season.
