Chris Carter News
The Minnesota Twins have released first baseman Chris Carter. Carter had yet to appear in a major league game in 2018, however was hitting .187 with seven home runs and 15 RBI at the minor league level. Carter has always been known for his power, he has 158 career home runs including 48 in 2016. He'll likely latch on with another team for that reason, but there's no proof that Carter will succeed at the major league level again, making him someone to leave on the waiver wire for now
The Minnesota Twins acquired first baseman Chris Carter from the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Carter will report to Triple-A Rochester after spending the entire season with the Angels Triple-A affiliate, hitting .255 with 13 homers and 43 RBI. The veteran slugger last played for the New York Yankees in the big leagues in 2017, appearing in 62 games. Carter has exceptional power in his bat but can only be regarded as organizational depth at this point of his career.
The Los Angeles Angels have informed first baseman/designated hitterChris Carter that he will not break camp on the 25-man roster. There's no word on if he will accept an assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake or if he will try and catch on with another club. Regardless, his current fantasy value is non-existent. If he catches on with another team in a bench role, he could have deep league relevance, but only if he is racking up at-bats.
