Top Dylan Carlson News

  • Dylan Carlson: Let go by Rays

    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.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Ends season with three hits

    Carlson went 3-for-4 with an RBI on Sunday against the Red Sox.

    Carlson has started only 12 of 27 games in September while working as a depth outfielder, but he ended his season on a strong note. 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.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: At DH, batting second Monday

    Carlson will start at designated hitter and bat second in Monday's game versus the Phillies.

    Carlson hasn't started often over the last few weeks with the Rays taking on a righty-heavy schedule, but he'll be up in the two hole versus southpaw Cristopher Sanchez in Monday's series opener. He has a .642 OPS with three home runs in 91 plate appearances since joining Tampa Bay.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Idle Wednesday

    Carlson isn't in the Rays' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Carlson has slashed .267/.353/.489 with three homers and nine RBI across 51 plate appearances since joining the Rays, but he'll step out of the lineup for a second consecutive game Wednesday.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: On bench Sunday

    Carlson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    After being acquired from the Cardinals at the trade deadline, Carlson has enjoyed the change of scenery and has a .913 OPS with three homers in 13 games with the Rays. He'll receive a breather Sunday as Kameron Misner gets a start in left field.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Collects homer, steal in win

    Carlson went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, a stolen base and an additional RBI in Friday's 5-4 victory over Arizona.

    The switch hitter picked up his third homer since joining Tampa Bay at the trade deadline with a 379-foot solo shot in the fifth inning. Carlson later plated his 19th RBI of the season with a run-scoring single in the eighth before pilfering his first bag with his new team. Since joining the Rays, the 25-year-old has batted .265 (9-for-34) with four runs scored, eight RBI and 3:10 BB:K while playing in a part-time role.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Taking seat Sunday

    Carlson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Carlson will hit the bench after he had started in each of the Rays' last four games while going 3-for-13 with a home run and a pair of walks. Though he hasn't quite moved into a full-time role in the Tampa Bay outfield just yet, Carlson seems to be pushing the struggling Jose Siri for a regular spot. Siri will man center field Sunday, but he had been out of the lineup for two of the past three games, with the Rays facing right-handed starters on both occasions.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Connects first home run

    Carlson went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Astros.

    Carlson took Yusei Kikuchi deep in the opening frame for his first home run since June of last season. After slashing .198/.275/.240 in 59 games with the Cardinals, he needed just two games to hit his first homer as a member of the Rays. Carlson should get plenty of opportunities with the Rays given all their recent moves during the trade deadline.

  • Rays' Dylan Carlson: Sent to Tampa Bay

    The Rays acquired Carlson from the Cardinals on Tuesday in exchange for reliever Shawn Armstrong, Ken Rosenthal of The Athleticreports.

    Carlson will receive a much-needed change of scenery after posting a .198/.275/.240 slash line in 59 games for the Cardinals this season. The 25-year-old is under team control for beyond 2024, and the Rays will attempt to return him to the form that earned him a third-place finish in voting for NL Rookie of the Year in 2021.

  • Cardinals' Dylan Carlson: Sitting against lefty

    Carlson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

    Carlson started the first three games of the series versus lefties but went just 1-for-11 with six strikeouts. He'll begin the series finale on the bench as the Nationals send another southpaw, Mitchell Parker, to the hill. Lars Nootbaar was activated from the injured list Monday and will take back his usual spot in right field, while Michael Siani covers center field.

  • Cardinals' Dylan Carlson: Seeing steady starts against LHPs

    Carlson will start in center field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    The switch-hitting Carlson will make his fourth consecutive start, with all coming against left-handed pitching. Carlson hasn't started against a right-handed pitcher since June 24 and still looks to be stuck in a short-side platoon role. He heads into Sunday's game with a .198/.273/.245 slash line and a 24 percent strikeout rate over 121 plate appearances on the season.
