Dylan Carlson - Page 2 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Heading to bench Sunday Carlson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Impact Carlson will head to the bench after starting five straight games and going 7-for-16 with two home runs, one triple, three walks, four RBI and four runs. With Colton Cowser (concussion) returning from the injured list Sunday and Dylan Beavers likely to get an extended audition as an everyday player, Carlson could find himself back in a bench role when Tyler O'Neill (wrist) comes off the IL.

Late homer snaps power drought Carlson went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Friday's 7-0 win over the Astros.

Impact The outfielder extended Baltimore's lead with a 330-foot shot into the Crawford Boxes off Shawn Dubin in the eighth inning, his first home run since June 12 and first extra-base hit since June 22. During the a prolonged 31-game homer drought, Carlson went just 13-for-88 with three RBI and five runs scored, struggling to make consistent hard contact. Friday's performance not only snapped the homerless stretch but also marked his second multi-hit effort in his last three games, offering a glimpse of improved form at the plate. On the season, the 26-year-old is slashing .200/.249/.315 with five home runs, 17 RBI and 13 runs scored across 61 games

Receiving breather Sunday Carlson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Impact With Baltimore moving Cedric Mullins, Ramon Laureano and Ryan O'Hearn at the trade deadline and with Colton Cowser (concussion) and Tyler O'Neill (wrist) recently landing on the injured list, Carlson's standing as a regular in the Baltimore outfield appears to be relatively secure. That said, the 26-year-old has thus far done little with his extended run in the lineup, as he went 0-for-31 with a stolen base and no runs or RBI while starting each of the past 10 games. Baltimore will roll out an outfield of Greg Allen, Jordyn Adams and Jeremiah Jackson from left to right in Sunday's series finale.

Getting regular run in outfield Carlson will start in center field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Carlson will pick up his fourth straight start and looks like he'll be in line for a near-everyday role in the Baltimore outfield after the Orioles shipped out Cedric Mullins, Ramon Laureano and Ryan O'Hearn prior to Thursday's trade deadline. The 26-year-old switch hitter has yet to get going at the plate since being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on July 22, going 2-for-21 with a 1:5 BB:K in nine games.

Returns to majors The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact Carlson is getting recalled in a corresponding move with the Orioles optioning Luis Vazquez prior to Tuesday's game. Carlson was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk July 3 and has gone 8-for-27 with two home runs and six walks across seven games since the demotion. However, he has not managed an OPS over .696 in the majors since his career high .780 OPS in 2021.

Sent down to minors The Orioles optioned Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Impact His roster spot will be filled by Tyler O'Neill (shoulder), who is slated to come off the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game in Atlanta. Carlson has a .650 OPS with four homers in 118 plate appearances across his multiple stints with the Orioles in 2025.

Back in majors The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.

Impact The veteran outfielder was demoted over the weekend but will quickly return to the big leagues with Chadwick Tromp (back) landing on the injured list. Carlson should serve as Baltimore's No. 4 outfielder, though he may not stick in the majors long since Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is nearing his return from the injured list.

Sent down to minors The Orioles optioned Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.

Impact Carlson started four of Baltimore's past seven games but went 2-for-17 at the plate during that span. He's posted a .667 OPS across 115 major-league plate appearances this season and will now get a chance to work on his stroke in the minors. In a corresponding move, infielder Emmanuel Rivera had his contract selected from Norfolk.

On bench Monday Carlson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Impact Though he'll be in danger of fading into a fourth-outfielder role once Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) makes his return from the injured list, Carlson has been a fairly stable presence in the lineup in recent weeks. He'll be on the bench for the series opener versus Texas but had started in eight of the previous 11 games while slashing .367/.367/.500 with a home run and a steal during that stretch.

Sitting after six straight starts Carlson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Impact Carlson had made starts in the corner outfield in each of the last six games and went 9-for-21 with a solo home run, a stolen base and three additional runs, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday while Baltimore rolls out an outfield of Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins and Ramon Laureano from left to right. Ryan O'Hearn will serve as Baltimore's designated hitter Wednesday, but if he ends up seeing the bulk of his playing time at first base moving forward, the Orioles could cycle a number of players at the DH spot to afford Carlson regular playing time in the outfield.

Three hits and a steal Carlson went 3-for-4 with a steal and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Rays.

Impact Carlson posted his second three-hit effort over the last week, though he has just one RBI to show for it. He also swiped his second bag of the season, matching his total in 96 games last year. Carlson's hit safely in 16 of his last 20 games, slashing .333/.370/.551 over that span, making it difficult for manager Brandon Hyde to take him out of the lineup.

Knocks three hits in defeat Carlson went 3-for-3 with a solo home run during Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Tigers.

Impact While the rest of his team struggled immensely with Tarik Skubal and the Tigers pitching staff, Carlson had no such struggles. The 26-year-old accounted for three of the team's four hits and the only run for the Orioles, knocking out his fourth home run of the season in the eighth. Carlson is slashing .247/.300/.452 for the year, trying to make the case that he should still see regular playing time despite the Orioles now close to full health in the outfield with Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) on a rehab assignment and looking to return soon.

Losing out on PT with Mullins back Carlson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Impact Carlson had made 14 consecutive starts from May 24 through this past Sunday and slashed .292/.346/.542 with three home runs and a stolen base during that stretch, but he looks like he'll have to settle for a fourth-outfielder role after the Orioles brought Cedric Mullins back from the injured list Tuesday. With Mullins back in the fold, Carlson will hit the bench for the second game in a row, and his playing-time outlook will only worsen once Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) -- who is in the midst of a rehab assignment -- gets activated from the IL.
