Carpenter went 2-for-5 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Sunday's 9-1 win over the Athletics.
After getting a breather Saturday with Oakland starting a southpaw, Carpenter returned and wasted no time making an impact. The 26-year-old continues to deliver strong results when he's healthy, as he's sporting a robust .941 OPS since returning from the injured list in mid-August. Carpenter may get occasional days off against lefties, but he's become an excellent fantasy contributor when he's in the lineup.

Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Out of lineup Saturday
Carpenter is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.
It's a bit odd to see Carpenter absent against an opposing righty starter (Nick Pivetta), although Pivetta has reverse splits this season with an .827 OPS allowed to righties and a .630 OPS allowed to lefties. Regardless, Colt Keith will take over as the designated hitter while Zach McKinstry starts at second, with Matt Vierling in right field and batting third.
