Odor, Carpenter named Players of the Week

Major League Baseball recognized last week's top performers Monday, naming the Rangers' Rougned Odor and the Cardinals' Matt Carpenter as Players of the Week presented by W.B. Mason in the American League and National League, respectively.

This is Odor's second such honor in 2018; he also won it in mid-July. The 24-year-old second baseman excelled for the surging Rangers last week, batting .304/.488/.870 (7-for-23) with eight runs scored, one double, four homers, 10 RBIs and six walks.

The 24-year-old second baseman collected his third career grand slam Friday, and he also made history Thursday at Globe Life Park.
