This position is an improvement on the 2025 rankings, in which Carroll finished sixth. He was also fourth going into 2024, coming off his unanimous selection as the NL Rookie of the Year, so this ties a career high in these rankings for Corbin. He came ninth in the network’s recent ranking of the top hundred players across all positions. There, Carroll was behind Aaron Judge and Juan Soto, but Corbin also trailed the Dodgers’ Kyle Tucker in this list.
Here is the full top ten:
Top 10 Right Fielders Right Now
- Aaron Judge, New York Yankees
- Juan Soto, New York Mets
- Kyle Tucker, Los Angeles Dodgers
- Corbin Carroll, Arizona Diamondbacks
- Ronald Acuña Jr., Atlanta Braves
- Fernando Tatis Jr., San Diego Padres
- Seiya Suzuki, Chicago Cubs
- George Springer, Toronto Blue Jays
- Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels
- Wilyer Abreu, Boston Red Sox
The 16th season of each Top 10 Right Now ranking considers player performance over multiple seasons, offensive and defensive metrics, both advanced Statcast data and traditional numbers, and expert analysis by the MLB Network research team. This might be the end of D-backs getting mentioned. Tomorrow is third basemen, and I suppose it’s just about possible Nolan Arenado could get mentioned, though I would be a little surprised. The other two categories remaining are first base and relief pitchers. Much as I regard Pavin Smith as under-rated (not least by his own fanbase!), I honestly do not expect Arizona to be troubling the list in either department.
