Kerry Carpenter Shelved with Hamstring Issue
Kerry Carpenter (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Infielder Trey Sweeney was recalled from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. The Virginia Tech product was pulled early from the team's matchup with the Minnesota Twins a few days ago after he appeared to tweak his hamstring leaving the batter's box. Initially, he was deemed day-to-day, but an MRI revealed more damage than expected. Carpenter will be eligible to return before the All-Star break, but it wouldn't be surprising for him to do so afterward. Teammate Zach McKinstry should benefit from increased playing time in the outfield in the meantime.
