Carpenter is surging... Kerry Carpenter (OF, DET) has 13 home runs, one stolen base, and a .274 BA in 229 PA in 2025. He dealt with injuries over the past two seasons, which led to limited opportunities. Could Carpenter have a breakout season?
| Season | PA | HR/SB | BA/xBA | ct% | h% | QBaB | GB%/FB% | PX/xPX | HR/F | SB%/SBO | BPX |
| 2022 | 113 | 6/0 | .252/.241 | 69% | 0.3077 | CBc | 40%/44% | 152/159 | 19% | 0%/0% | 155 |
