Carp Struggling

Mike Carp is playing pretty terrible right now for the Scottsdale Scorpions of the Arizona Fall League. Carp, who batted .251 with 11 home runs, 48 rbis, and 55 runs in 97 games for AA Binghamton has yet to find his groove. In his last 6 games, Carp is 3 for his last 21 with 3 strikeouts. After a 2006 season where Carp hit .287 with 17 homers, 88 RBIs and 69 runs scored in 137 games for A Advanced St. Lucie along with finishing third in the Florida State League in total bases (221), second in RBIs, fourth in hits (141) and second in games (137), it seemed Carp was on the fast track to playing for the Mets. But, a wrist injury took away most of Carps season and he has not put up the same power numbers since.
