Outlook Kerry Carpenter

Kerry Carpenter's recent power surge makes him a must-start option as the Tigers look to climb the division.

Carpenter is locked in, batting .290 over his last 14 days and .303 over his last 30 days as Detroit's everyday right fielder. He has completely moved past his minor shoulder soreness from May, providing a massive offensive boost for a fourth-place Tigers (29-42) squad currently navigating several key injuries.

While our models project a .255 average with 13 homers over 439 at-bats, Carpenter's recent .606 slugging percentage is reminiscent of his 28-homer campaign in 2025. Though some minor regression is expected, his elite power upside remains highly sustainable as long as he stays healthy.

The Tigers face a six-game slate, starting with three games in Houston against pitchers like Hunter Brown (0.84 ERA) before returning home to face the White Sox. The weekend brings friendlier matchups, including a date with Erick Fedde (4.69 ERA). Lock him into lineups as a confident weekly Start.
