If Ackley and Carp give you two more consistent XBH + BB guys, then you probably can afford to have a random-moon-shot guy in the lineup, too.  And we have two candidates for the job -- or they can share it.
Yeah, Carp has less chance to be special than Rendon, but may end up being as productive.  I wouldn't trade Rendon for Carp in a mythical world in which it were possible, but Carp is making it more interesting than expected.
And, actually there are seven guys on the roster 25-and-under: Felix, Pineda, Smoak, Ackley, Carp, Peguero and Halman.  (Felix was 25 in April, Carp is 25 in a couple of weeks.)  And Saunders and Cortes have been up, if you still want to count them.
