Impact The 22-year-old now has three multi-hit efforts in the last four games, although all but one of his eight hits during that span have been singles.

Impact It's a tangible sign Carlson's considerable talents are starting to pay dividends at the highest level, with the current stretch serving as the outfielder's best in the majors thus far. Carlson has also struck out at just a 15.8 percent clip during that sample while walking at an identical rate, an excellent ratio that portends plenty of ongoing success if it persists.

Laces first triple of '21 Carlson went 1-for-3 with a triple and two runs in a win over the Nationals on Monday.
Impact Carlson's first three-bagger of the season put him in position to eventually come home on Paul DeJong's fifth-inning grand slam. The 22-year-old appears to have made significant strides at the plate since his initial big-league cup of coffee last season, as he already matched his 2020 home-run tally (three) in 96 fewer plate appearances and now sports a .260/.377/.540 line that leaves last season's .200/.252/.364 slash across 119 PAs in the dust.

First multi-hit effort Carlson went 3-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored Tuesday against the Nationals.
Impact Carlson has racked up plenty of counting stats early on this season, delivering three home runs, nine RBI and seven runs scored across 11 games. However, he had not recorded more than one hit in a contest until Tuesday's effort. While his production has been strong through 44 plate appearances, he's punching out an elevated 29.5 percent clip and has struck out at least once in all but one start this season.

Smacks grand slam Carlson went 1-for-4 with a grand slam Wednesday against the Marlins.
Impact Carlson was held hitless through three at-bats, but came to the plate with the bases loaded in the ninth inning and smacked his third home run of the season. He's had an interesting start to the season, as his only three hits of the campaign have all gone over the fence. As a result, he's hitting only .158 and has a 30.4 percent strikeout rate, a mark that will likely need to come down for Carlson to remain productive.
