Last month, Arizona Diamondbacks star Ketel Marte was spotted gambling at a local casino while his team was playing a game at Chase Field, which drew some strong reaction from fans of the baseball team.
A video circulating on social media on Sunday night into Monday morning in the aftermath of the end of the Diamondbacks' season was drawing similar reaction.
The video appeared to show Marte living it up as a DJ on TikTok after Arizona was eliminated from MLB postseason contention.
Marte appeared very upbeat and happy in the social media post, something that drew the ire of many Arizona baseball fans that felt he should appear upset about the Diamondbacks missing out on the MLB playoffs.
Should Marte be broken up about the Diamondbacks missing the postseason
or are people making too much of nothing?
Social media certainly had thoughts, including in the replies to the post with the video.
“I’m so sad the diamondbacks got eliminated today”

Marte hit .249 for the Diamondbacks this season, his lowest batting average since 2022. He had 22 home runs, 76 RBIs and 140 hits in 141 games.
The Diamondbacks finished the season 86-76, missing the postseason by two games.
Arizona was still in contention for the postseason until the final day of the regular season on Sept. 27, but was eliminated when the Philadelphia Phillies won their final game.
Marte's antics have led some to questions about his future with the team and the latest video could add to the questions.
