• Dylan Carlson: Let go by Rays

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlson was non-tendered by the Rays on Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Carlson was dealt to the Rays at the trade deadline and posted a .615 OPS, which was an improvement from his first half of the season with the Cardinals. Given his pedigree, and because he's still only 26 years old, Carlson may get a big-league deal from someone. However, his career 94 wRC+ and .304 wOBA likely mean he'll struggle to find regular playing time.

He hit only .219 with a .615 OPS after being dealt to the Rays, so he could remain a bench bat for the team heading into 2025.
