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.

Carlson will start in left field and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
With injuries mounting in the Baltimore outfield, Carlson has been one of the primary beneficiaries. He'll start an eighth straight game Sunday after going 9-for-25 with two home runs, two doubles, six RBI, four runs and a stolen base over the previous seven contests. The Orioles are expected to get Colton Cowser (thumb) back from the injured list shortly, but his return could result in fewer opportunities for Heston Kjerstad or Jorge Mateo rather than Carlson.

Carlson went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer, a steal and an additional run scored Monday's 5-2 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
The Baltimore outfielder had a big day against one of his former clubs, pushing the Orioles' lead to 5-0 with a 397-foot, three-run homer off St. Louis starter Erick Fedde in the fourth. Carlson also swiped his first bag of the season earlier in the third inning. The 26-year-old is now slashing .176/.216/.382 with two homers, seven RBI and four runs scored over 37 plate appearances.

The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old was demoted to Norfolk on Wednesday but will quickly return to Baltimore with Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) headed to the injured list. Carlson has gone 0-for-15 with eight strikeouts while appearing in just 10 games for Baltimore this season. He'll provide some outfield depth but isn't likely to have a regular spot in the lineup even while O'Neill is sidelined.

The Orioles optioned Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson is clearing out to make room on the roster for the return of infielder Ramon Urias (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list. The 26-year-old outfielder has gone hitless in 15 at-bats during his time with the big club this season.

The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Tyler O'Neill (neck) headed for the injured list, Carlson will come up from the minors to replenish Baltimore's outfield depth. The 26-year-old has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he's slashed .286/.418/.381 with 11 RBI, 18 runs scored and four steals through 18 games.
