With apologies to Simon & Garfunkel, Joe DiMaggio and Mrs. Robinson, "Where have you gone Manager Kirk Gibson? The Diamondback Clubhouse (and Nation) turns its lonely eyes to you".

All Star Ketel Marte and his $116 million contract was AWOL in Boston, continues to ghost his teammates, now says his knee and hamstring hurt, is not in the dugout supporting his teammates as they claw towards a playoff wild card, and instead is spending hours at Talking Stick Casino while D'Backs are on the field … and Manager Lovullo is fine with that.
