Yeah, relax, and if the trend continues after 100 PA, I agree with your listed alternatives. But first, why not just give him a day off? It works IRL sometimes, so why not in OOTP? As far as batting order position, don’t ignore a change to leadoff. To a guy like Carlson, that could be a message to stop swinging for the fences, and just either make contact or take a walk - - get on base and use your speed. With a gifted talent like that, the XBH will come. Meanwhile, maybe trade RBI for RS, and HR for OBP.
