Kerry Carpenter News
The Detroit Tigers placed right-handers Matt Manning (forearm) and Kerry Carpenter (back) on the injured list on Thursday and selected the contract of right-hander Miguel Diaz from Triple-A Toledo and recalled utility man Kody Clemens from Toledo in corresponding moves. Manning was placed on the 60-day injured list with a right forearm strain, while Carpenter is on the 10-day IL with a left lumbar spine strain. Both pitchers will miss the rest of the regular season. The 24-year-old Manning could be headed for Tommy John surgery if his forearm strain is significant enough, which would knock him out for all of the 2023 season. Carpenter doesn't have any structural damage in his back, so he should be ready for spring training next season.
Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter isn't in the team's lineup on Wednesday for a matchup with the Kansas City Royals and left-handed starter Daniel Lynch. Carpenter is hitting .252 in 113 plate appearances for the Tigers season, with a .310 on-base percentage and six home runs. Instead, the Tigers are starting Willi Castro in right field. Castro will sixth against Lynch and the Royals. He's hitting .236 with a .280 on-base percentage, seven home runs and nine stolen bases in 387 plate appearances this season. Fantasy managers in search of streaming help are probably better off looking elsewhere.
MLB.com's Jason Beck reported Tuesday that the Detroit Tigers will promote outfielder Kerry Carpenter from Triple-A Toledo for Wednesday's game against the Guardians. He will make his MLB debut as a designated hitter. Daz Cameron will be optioned in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old Carpenter has hit for both average and power in the minors this season, collecting 30 home runs and 75 RBI in 396 plate appearances across Double-A and Triple-A. He specifically has slashed .342/.433/.667 in 134 plate appearances with Triple-A. Carpenter sounds like an intriguing fantasy prospect, but fantasy managers in redraft leagues should wait to see what he can do in the big leagues before considering him for a roster spot.
