The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson's promotion comes as Luis Vazquez was optioned to Norfolk prior to Tuesday's game. Carlson was demoted July 3 and has gone 8-for-27 with two home runs and six walks across seven games with the Tides. However, he has not managed an OPS over .696 in the majors since his career-high .780 OPS in 2021.

The Orioles optioned Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
His roster spot will be filled by Tyler O'Neill (shoulder), who is slated to come off the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game in Atlanta. Carlson has a .650 OPS with four homers in 118 plate appearances across his multiple stints with the Orioles in 2025.

The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran outfielder was demoted over the weekend but will quickly return to the big leagues with Emmanuel Rivera getting designated for assignment. Carlson should serve as Baltimore's No. 4 outfielder, though he may not stick in the majors long since Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) is nearing his return from the injured list.

The Orioles optioned Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson started four of Baltimore's past seven games but went 2-for-17 at the plate during that span. He's posted a .667 OPS across 115 major-league plate appearances this season and will now get a chance to work on his stroke in the minors. In a corresponding move, infielder Emmanuel Rivera had his contract selected from Norfolk.

Carlson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Though he'll be in danger of fading into a fourth-outfielder role once Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) makes his return from the injured list, Carlson has been a fairly stable presence in the lineup in recent weeks. He'll be on the bench for the series opener versus Texas but had started in eight of the previous 11 games while slashing .367/.367/.500 with a home run and a steal during that stretch.

Carlson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson had made starts in the corner outfield in each of the last six games and went 9-for-21 with a solo home run, a stolen base and three additional runs, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday while Baltimore rolls out an outfield of Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins and Ramon Laureano from left to right. Ryan O'Hearn will serve as Baltimore's designated hitter Wednesday, but if he ends up seeing the bulk of his playing time at first base moving forward, the Orioles could cycle a number of players at the DH spot to afford Carlson regular playing time in the outfield.

Carlson went 3-for-4 with a steal and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson posted his second three-hit effort over the last week, though he has just one RBI to show for it. He also swiped his second bag of the season, matching his total in 96 games last year. Carlson's hit safely in 16 of his last 20 games, slashing .333/.370/.551 over that span, making it difficult for manager Brandon Hyde to take him out of the lineup.

Carlson went 3-for-3 with a solo home run during Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
While the rest of his team struggled immensely with Tarik Skubal and the Tigers pitching staff, Carlson had no such struggles. The 26-year-old accounted for three of the team's four hits and the only run for the Orioles, knocking out his fourth home run of the season in the eighth. Carlson is slashing .247/.300/.452 for the year, trying to make the case that he should still see regular playing time despite the Orioles now close to full health in the outfield with Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) on a rehab assignment and looking to return soon.

Carlson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson had made 14 consecutive starts from May 24 through this past Sunday and slashed .292/.346/.542 with three home runs and a stolen base during that stretch, but he looks like he'll have to settle for a fourth-outfielder role after the Orioles brought Cedric Mullins back from the injured list Tuesday. With Mullins back in the fold, Carlson will hit the bench for the second game in a row, and his playing-time outlook will only worsen once Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) -- who is in the midst of a rehab assignment -- gets activated from the IL.

Carlson went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and two walks in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson has gone 4-for-16 (.250) with two walks and three RBI over his first five games in June. The outfielder opened the scoring with his second-inning blast Friday. He's up to three long balls, 11 RBI, six runs scored, three doubles and one stolen base while batting .222 with a .688 OPS through 69 plate appearances this season.
