- In 2023 Corbin Carroll broke rookie records for his blazing speed and elite offense. He also helped bring the Arizona Diamondbacks who were the worst team in baseball in 2021, to the World Series. But so far in 2024 the spark that made him so special in the first place is seemingly missing. But why is this the case? Well come with me and let's take a deep dive into why one of baseball's brightest young stars has struggled so far in 2024.

Alek thomas, jake mccarthy, drew jones, corbin carroll, and now slade caldwell (recently drafted) are all fast and athletic outfielders for the dbacks who have all had time in the top prospect list, i think that carroll became what the others were supposed to and they all are gonna grow together
I think that could definitely be the case.
Alek Thomas will forever be a sub 250 hitter. His defense is great but his bat is a huge liability. He's an outfield Nick Ahmed and idk why no one else can see that. HE IS OVERRATED. He had 1 good at bat in the postseason and that's it.
@@diegorascon5411your overrated. Not everything is about batting
I can see Thomas not coming back after getting sent down.
@@yes.2144 he’s coming back
He literally walked off with a homer last night from a 6-0 deficit
And?
And?
He's on track to be at less than half of his HR total of last year.
On track to double his strikeouts.
OBP dropped to .306 (below average) from .362 (great) last year.
Average down 70 points... 30 below league average.
.... and you're celebrating a walk off home run 🤣🤣
still sucked half of the year
Batting average sucks!!
He is literally on a massive tear and is cooking w comment
carroll"s back with that walk off tonight!
Came from the stream as a dbacks fan in glad that he is slowly coming back just wish it wasn’t as slow because he is a big part of the dbacks plan
That's true, hopefully he can help get them back in the Wild Card in the 2nd half. I think there's a great chance.
I don’t even like the Dbacks, but I’m pulling for Corbin. I hate seeing players struggle. I can’t imagine that level of frustration.
I think I saw people saying he was probably hurt his shoulder, he should pick it back up
@@lilhito9498I don’t think he’s hurt, but I think he tried to change his swing to avoid future shoulder problems, and now he’s finally getting back to his old swing
He is hitting .209 over the last month. What are you talking about?
As a Mariners fan who loves JP Crawford, progression is not linear. Especially in baseball.
That's completely true. I hope he can bounce back and guide the D-backs back into the playoffs.
And now Crawford stinks again. Baseball is really hard.
As a baseball, I can confirm that Carroll is indeed not hitting us.
lol
gay.
your a baseball, OMG
Maybe he saw this 😂 he has 3 hr since this video dropped.
Like Bronny and Awful Coaching.
Hit a walk off homer the other night also
Probably did. Lol😅
The douchebag made a video for views. He has more walks, less strikeouts. Leads mlb in triples. And he is on fire currently. Sometimes the ball doesnt fall in the gaps. Dude who made video is a clown
2 homers tonight, including a slam. I think he’s adjusted.
Lots of rookies usually struggle during their 2nd season. I hope he can come back so I can watch the dbacks in the wild card
The sophmore slump. I think it may come from the pitchers around the league figuring out a young player's holes in their swing. And then that player trying to make adjustments which inevitably screws up the player's mechanics at the plate. Baseball is hard.
That is true. Will be interesting to see how he bounces back.
With analytics opposing teams know which part of the strike zone and what type of pitches he has trouble with. He needs to adjust to the pitching.
Yea he’s having kinda like a Jeremy pena sophomore year
Alot of experts say that 2nd year struggle is the reason why no one has won roty twice in a row!
He was so good for me in Show 24... and then he cratered. I miss hitting bombs with him. Hope he gets right.
That's why I'm happy he ended up becoming one of the Cornerstone captains. Sure, mostly using the Luis Castillo LS series boost now... but having a diamond Carroll to throw on my DBacks squad is nice.
As a MASSIVE D-Backs fan, I've been watching him closely this season and have NO IDEA what tf is going on with him. He mentioned trying to fix something with his swing angle or something a couple few months ago and I've heard people talk about his stride, but if it was these things EVERYONE seems to be noticing, Ithink it's safe to assume HE knows. Why tf isn't he improving!? I know fixing stuff isn't easy, even when you know what's wrong, and batting is hard and all that, but dude...this is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT DUDE this season. It makes NO SENSE to me how he's THIS BAD this season STILL when he has all the time, and all the best trainers in the world, to fix it. It's friggin late July...we've seen a few little glimmers of hope but that's IT. The ONLY thing that makes any sense is either an injury or something psychological. I really hope he gets back to normal soon. LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO, D-BACKS!! 🐍⚾️
I agree, he definitely knows his swing is not in a good spot. But it's hard if his shoulder is bothering him and he can't swing the same way as last season.
D-Backs look to be back in the playoff hunt!
@@3-0Greenlight Yea, we've been playing GREAT...we're still hurting in the pitching department, but overall, been makin' it happen. I just hope he can get his shit figured out because, with that extra production?...man...we'd be EPIC!!
Sure there’s his shoulder injury and his flat swing. Carroll just doesn’t look like he enjoys the game anymore like he used to. I remember seeing him smiling all the time and he doesn’t smile anymore. Part of it is mental
That is completely true. If you look at the clip I use towards the end of the video where I talk about how he's having a hard time trying to breakout of his slump. He looks extremely depressed.
Well dude don’t you think he’s depressed and upset because he isn’t playing that well. That would keep you down and not make you enjoy the game.
That’s just living in Phoenix
Carroll is slowly coming back & has his team piping hot. Hope he keeps it up.
If 3-0 is making a dedicated vid about you, that means the game is really kicking your ass... and expectations about you > your perf
That actually just made me laugh pretty hard 😂
My next video is about Erick Fedde. Title will be something along the lines of
The Pitcher Who Went to South Korea to Save His Career
The league adjusted to him. He either needs to make and adjustment to how he's being pitched or he'll be a middling player for the rest of his career. This same story has been told countless times in MLB.
I think the league understanding up and in fastballs have been his kryptonite is big. But I think if he gets back to his old swing, he would have a better time with those types of pitches.
Yup, its a tale as old as time. Gleyber torres i thought was gonna be hof
Love the channel name man that’s my number 1 motto
He looks so much older in that clubhouse video you keep showing of him. You are right about mental. Great analysis
He always had a different swing as a Dbacks fan I never thought it would work as well as it did. But that shoulder injury and the mental aspect pressure of it all is affecting him the most
That's fair
Being fair to Corbin too, after a cold start his OPS is about 775 since June.
Not eye popping but absolutely proof adjustments were make compared to the 500s he started with thru May.
It’s mental. It’s hard to manage the pressure and fan expectations after a crazy rookie year. He’ll bounce back 2025
Bounce back soon Carroll perform in the playoffs
D-Backs look to be trending in that direction!
Proposed stat: helping to shorten the start of a pitcher who is dominating a game via number of pitches you force him to throw to you .
There is a metric on baseball reference that shows you number of pitches per plate appearance a player sees.
Go to advanced batting, then in the blue tabs where it says pitches click on it. It'll take you to a new page and you can scroll down til you see " Show Pitch Summary - Batting".
As a dodger fan I’m sad to see this talent struggle. Really wanted pay back in the playoffs
As a snakes fan, respect
haha
I watched their nlcs game 5 last year it was magical
really?? game 5 sucked. Gallen got shelled for the second time in the series. Think you might be thinking 3 or 4.
@@2bmc. I’m talking about to atmosphere of chase bank stadium and not the actual game play
I plan on going to a D-Backs game next year I believe. I miss Lourdes Gurriel Jr. He was my favorite player on the Jays...
@@3-0Greenlight down town phoenix is interesting but it’s a fun area near the stadium if you go
hes actually balled out lately must have seen your video
Corbin’s definitely one of my favorite players. only thing I could picture was him having a slump season. feel like he’ll bounce back tremendously next season
Definitely will IMO, nothing wrong with sophomore slumps. As a Guards fan I think of how poor kwan was last year and then he took the off-season really seriously and got right
I think so too. Hoping that shoulder gets back into a good spot.
He’s been on base 18 games in a row
Since this video....In the last 30 games, Corbin Carroll's OPS is .927, which ranks him 14th in Major League Baseball. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The high fastball
and 3-0 Greenlight you are the most underrated youtuber on the whole platform, keep it up and keep dropping bangers every week
Thank you! I greatly appreciate your kind words! :)
Hope he returns to last year’s form because he sure is fun to watch.
Would be a huge bonus to the D-Backs down the stretch!
The same thing that happens to hitters like this the league adapted to him simple explanation, it’s up to him to adapt his game he’s still learning
I just found your channel. I am enjoying your analysis, so I subbed. IMO, his comment before the end of the video makes me so confused. It seems like he's trying to work on his swing in-season, though he knows that is something you work on in the training and pre-season periods. How does he not get reprimanded for that? I hadn't yet seen a comparison of his swings until this video, and I was shocked at how wide his stance is now. Not only does it limit power because the dominant foot is no longer as strong on the energy exchange, but being so wide open increases the time and energy it takes to get out of the stance and into a run to base. I really hope he's just going through the infamous sophomore slump, but there's something about 2024 season Carroll that's strikingly different about 2023 Carroll. Regardless, I wish him the best of luck.
I'm glad you enjoyed them!
I too was surprised to hear his thoughts on why he had been slumping. Because it wasn't what I had noticed when watching him. I think the main thing with him has been his shoulder injury which zapped his power shown by his extra base totals decreasing massively in 2023 after his injury in July. Despite having a near identical AVG and similar PA's.
Yeah corbin caroll redeem his self hitting a walk off from down 6-0
Walkofffff!!!!!
He’s on a tear rn and is cooking and the dbacks are winning there games he’s also 23 years old so hes gotta grow up it’s his 2nd year
You know what's going to make this dude great? He's got the personality. And down to earth. Maybe he just wanted to give the dodger a handicap this season like last season. They earned the name the answerbacks last season
We believe in you Corbin 💪
He should’ve been a model. Honestly
Wt?
@@harts2___ guy look like a movie star
Sophomore slump is all it is
I fear it's his shoulder
I was there against toronto when he hit back to back HR's
He’s back
Time heals all wounds. He might be going thru a bit of poor poor pitiful me syndrome mixed with I have never been in pain all the time and It's peeing me off. He will come back, and my team will revisit the WS in 2026 and wn. Go D-Backs
We might have to come back to this in 2026!
Nomar Garciaparra sure avoided that steroid scandal. Didnt do shit after the scandal hit. The travis Haffner effect
He hasn't been the same since the shoulder scare. He nade some adjustments which seem to have set him back a little.. He's been forcing things a little. Let's be honest. Major League Baseball is a very tough sport. He made it look easy at times, and we came to expect the same. He's going to find it again.
Agreed, I think the shoulder has hurt his approach massively and teams have been taking advantage of it
The key point of the video is he’s not ahead on the charts as a number 2 to Gunnar. He had a great rookie campaign but what is going on w the young players in AZ?
He just had a walk off homer
He realized his rookie cards were way overvalued so he wanted to correct that.
lol
Feel like he’s cocking back a litttle more on his swing. Looks like there’s a lot of motion going on there
It's definitely much different than last year when he had all his success.
ol boy got that npb special swing, if he was there he would dominate lol
lol
Nobody heard of the sophomore slump jeez
Nice analysis first time here I’m listening
Glad you enjoyed! Happy to have you here!
Make sure to leave a comment and I'll respond to everyone who posts within the first 24 hours! (And I'll try my best after that)
He'll be fine 💪🏼💯🪽
Earned a sub!
Glad to have you on board!
Padres fan here. Hoping Corbin can get back to tip top shape as we get Tatis back. Of course I want my team to win, but also want some fierce competition going into the playoffs. We've had a lot of great players go through highs and lows, just as any team. Corbin is young and will figure it out. Exciting to see us both getting 🔥. Best of luck to y'all, but LFGSD
1:33 I’m on the the home run how crazy
Follow up?
Could it be he got paid too early???🤔
Dude is just fine
He just pinched hit walk off, yesterday 🥱
He’s still batting 219 with 8 homeruns all year 🥱
@@sharpshooter-ny5vh do you even watch baseball?
@@stevefrank3599 I do yes do u ?
@@stevefrank3599 don’t take a genius to figure out Corbin Carrol sucks and all his batting stats are in the bottom % of the league esp his hard hit rate
I remember watching him last year he was incredible but this year I don’t know what’s wrong with him
That's why I made this video! I thought the same thing, so this video was an excuse for me to spend way too long researching why 😂
@@3-0Greenlight fair enough. I just hope he can get out of this slump
I'll take a stab. Sophomore season? Maybe professional pitchers have figured out the hole in his swing? The pro sport adapts very quickly to hotshot players and said players either adjust accordingly or fade away.
I think the shoulder injury which could be causing his swing to be different is the biggest thing. And pitchers have realized that and started to throw fastballs up and in where he is late. But I believe it stems from his swing being different than last year.
I have Carrol on my fantasy team
Hopefully better days are coming!
Same he’s heated up though
Same here he was my first round pick
you won't have him next year....he's lousy.
Holes in his swing were exploited that he hasn't adapted to. The greats adapt and figure it out. Trout was highly susceptible to the high fastball, particularly up and in. Chased it and couldn't make contact with it even when it was in the zone. Stopped chasing it and his OBP skyrocketed. Judge was susceptible to the slider low and away. Still is. Same thing, he learned to lay off and now his OBP is pushing .450 this season. Harper was susceptible to the fastball up and away and the changeup low and away. He too adapted. Corbin has yet to do so.
Can u do a video on Wilmer Flores?
I'm always open to suggestions!
Have you done a video on Matt Olsen? Fantasy finally let me drop him yesterday. I wouldn't be surprised if he starts doing good now, 😂
He's a player I was thinking about doing for a video like this! Doing a deep dive into why he is struggling compared to last year.
Walk off home run fool🎉
the guy is now one of the biggest jokes in MLB....can't hit, no matter how many times they slot him into the leadoff spot. looks lost...one and done.
It'll be interesting to see if he can improve down the stretch. Or if his shoulder injury will derail him like Bellinger.
He signed the 111,000,000 contract as a rookie and then got lazy?!?
I don't think so. At least I hope. It always hurts me to hear players not give it their all after signing for lots of money
Lol Lazy? Hitting a baseball is the hardest thing in sports, simpleton
Do Jose Abreu next
I feel like he's just gotta fix his swing and then he'll be back to his 2023 self
I think that's a big part for sure.
And he just helped beat the Pirates 4 times in 6 games. He looks ok to me.
He's ready to become a Seattle Mariner!
Oh he’s just getting warmed up
His third year will tell us how far his career will go. Soph slump, 😢
That's true! He's only 23. I enjoyed watching him last year so I made this video as an excuse to learn more into his struggles beyond the phrase "Sophomore slump"
Corbin is getting overly confident in the box. That makes you anticipate your thoughts on the pitch that's coming and messes up your swing.
Maybe him being average is the Real Him
He Always Rubbed Me The Wrong Way So Not Bothered At All Seeing Him Struggle
Sophomore slumps are real. And it’s pretty hard to follow up the rookie year he had. Been frustrating watching him this year but he’s slowly getting back there. Still a threat on base. I feel that most of us fans have both faith and patience in the guy.
It's just the sophomore slump curse. I think he'll turn it around next season.
That's fair. I just wanted to do more digging into what exactly could be the cause of his struggles beyond that saying.
His swing got flatter. Problem solved.
he still a golden glove
Can’t beg anyone to buy his rookies from me.
lol
My bad it’s cause I drafted him in fantasy
ah man :(
He stopped playing good BOOM just saved yall 10 minutes
facts
@04:30 Geeze I noticed before u even said it
Good eye!
He was never really supposed to have power he may never hit more homeruns than he did his rookie season
god damn mlb gotta look at these kinda youtubers if they can't figure their own players out
Walk-Off!
What if he eliminates the massive leg kick, then he'd be able to better time the 4SFB
I think limiting how far he is striding is a good idea. Allow him to have better timing for velocity like you're saying.
Reality happened
I think getting the shoulder back to a healthy spot would be huge!
Win ROTY change approach at the plate in the offseason…smh
Because he had a shoulder injury which made his swing more flat
Did you watch the video? He blew out his shoulder multiple times. He will get it figured out.
@@codyscards6698 I’m aware
I think it's more due to the injury he sustained which has impacted it. But it's nice to know something that he could work towards.
@@3-0Greenlight it is it’s just hard to see them playing him everyday and clearly struggling as opposed to working on finding a healing option.
Its called the sophomore slump and being a Yankees fan I am glad Anthony Volpe didn't suffer from the same fate. It's hard for most players to come back from this kind of season as they try way to hard to repeat the season before and fail miserably, just look at James Outman, he is 27 years ol and now in the minors and at his age if he hasn't made it by now he never will because most players reach their prime at 30 so good luck Mr. Outman with your Minor League career.
DBacks are red hot. Corbin Carroll goes yard last night.
It's mentality/work eithic. Compare him and steven kwan last season and now
If you total his WAR from last year and this one he has a career WAR of zero
Stop lying, 5.9 war in last 2 years combined
Baseball happened to Corbin Carroll.
The ball was heavily juiced
my dumbself picked Corbin and mccarthy in fantasy
oh no 😂
