Chris Carter will be designated for assignment over the next two weeks. We mean that in a good way.

The Mets' Chris Carter, part of the Billy Wagner trade with the Red Sox, was a DH for most of his college career at Stanford. Not known for his glove, Carter is largely relegated to being a pinch hitter against National League competition.
