Productive in shutout win Carlos had three tackles (three won), two clearances and three interceptions in Tuesday's 4-0 victory versus Toronto FC.

Suspended for season finale Carlos was shown a yellow card for a bad foul during Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Miami and is suspended for yellow card accumulation during Sunday's match against Columbus.

Impact It was a rather unnecessary and debatable foul for Carlos, as his side already trailed 4-0 at that point in the match. Nonetheless, the booking represents the defender's sixth of the season, and it will keep him off the pitch for his squad's final regular season contest. Kyle Smith or Rodrigo Schlegel are the most likely replacements in a big spot for City Sunday against Columbus.

He should return to the starting lineup in central defense once he's fit enough.
