Samuel Carlson (born December 3, 1998) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization.

Amateur career

Carlson attended Burnsville High School in Burnsville, Minnesota.[1] During his senior year, Carlson had a jump in velocity, going from the 88–92 miles per hour range to 93–97.[2] He posted a 0.93 ERA (9th in state and 2nd on Burnsville) and 53 strikeouts (28th in state) over 34 innings, and was named Minnesota Mr. Baseball.[3] He committed to play college baseball for the Florida Gators.[4]

Professional career

Seattle Mariners

Carlson was selected in the second round of the 2017 Major League Baseball draft by the Seattle Mariners.[5][6] He signed with the Mariners for $2 million.[7] He made his professional debut with the Arizona League Mariners, pitching only three innings before being shut down due to minor elbow discomfort.[8]

Heading into the 2018 season, Carlson was named Seattle's third ranked prospect and the top pitching prospect in the organization, but had elbow discomfort return during the Mariners mini-camp in February and was shut down again. He was given a platelet-rich injection and eventually started rehabbing, but a setback in his rehab forced him to undergo Tommy John surgery on July 2, causing him to miss the rest of 2018 and all of the 2019 season.[9][10] Carlson returned healthy in 2020, but did not play a game after the minor league season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[11] For the 2021 season, he was assigned to the Single-A Modesto Nuts, starting 19 games with a 6–4 record, 4.77 ERA, and 112 strikeouts in 100 innings.[12]

In 2022, Carlson made 16 appearances (11 starts) for Modesto, recording a 4.61 ERA with 60 strikeouts across 56+2⁄3 innings of work.[13] He spent 2023 with the High-A Everett AquaSox, pitching in 39 games and logging a 5.25 ERA with 61 strikeouts and 6 saves. As a six-year minor league veteran, Carlson elected free agency on November 6.[14]

Milwaukee Brewers

On November 30, Carlson signed a minor league contract with the Milwaukee Brewers.[15] He pitched 44 games in relief for the Double-A Biloxi Shuckers, going 4–2 with a 4.25 ERA and 51 strikeouts in 48+2⁄3 innings.[16] On November 6, he elected free agency.[17]
