Carlson received an invite to the 2019 All-Star Futures Game on Friday, Shaun O'Neill of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The promising outfielder is enjoying a solid season at Double-A Springfield, slashing .287/.367/.507 with 32 extra-base hits (15 doubles, six triples, 11 home runs) and 44 RBI. This is Carlson's first season at the Double-A level after splitting 2018 between Low-A Peoria and High-A Palm Beach, and both his current batting average and slugging percentage encouragingly qualify as career bests.
