Carter Kieboom Stats

Washington Nationals third baseman Carter Kieboom is set to make his first MLB appearance since 2021 Tuesday night when the club takes on the New York Yankees and left-hander Carlos Rodon. The former top prospect missed all of the 2022 season due to Tommy John surgery while a shoulder impingement kept him out of action until he began his minor-league season on May 4. Now 25, Kieboom hit .264 with five homers, one stolen base, and a .789 OPS across 34 games at Triple-A this season and is the owner of a disappointing .197 BA with eight HR and a .589 OPS across 414 career plate appearances in the big leagues. He will hit ninth and man third base in his season debut with the Nationals on Tuesday.

The Washington Nationals activated infielder Carter Kieboom (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Rochester. Kieboom went 3-for-12 during four games on a minor-league rehab assignment for Double-A Harrisburg over the weekend, and now he will return to Rochester. The Nationals will want to see the 25-year-old have some success down on the farm while also staying healthy before they give him a chance to claim an everyday role in the majors in 2023. He missed all of last year due to Tommy John surgery and then missed the beginning of this season with a shoulder impingement. In 106 games over three big-league seasons, Kieboom has been a disappointment with a .197/.304/.285 slash line with seven doubles, eight home runs and 31 RBI in 414 plate appearances.

Washington Nationals third baseman Carter Kieboom (elbow, shoulder), who is recovering from Tommy John surgery, is doing shoulder exercises and has resumed throwing to bases. He made 25 throws on April 5, according to manager Dave Martinez. Kieboom's workload will gradually increase as he works his way back, but there remains no timetable for his return. The 25-year-old was put on the 10-day injured list to begin the 2023 campaign after suffering a right shoulder impingement in early March. Kieboom had Tommy John surgery last May. When healthy, he could see time at designated hitter now that Jeimer Candelario and Joey Meneses are lineup regulars. Kieboom will have to prove to fantasy managers in deep leagues that he's worth a pickup once he returns to action.
