Rangers' Evan Carter: Out with Grade 2 strain
The Rangers placed Carter on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right quadriceps strain.
The 22-year-old was scratched from the starting nine ahead of Saturday's 5-1 win over the Astros due to the injury and finds himself on the injured list a day later. According to Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News, manager Bruce Bochy said Sunday that Carter is dealing with a Grade 2 strain and is expected to be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks. Sam Haggerty and Kevin Pillar are likely to see most of the playing time in center field while Carter is on the shelf.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Scratched from lineup Saturday
Carter has been removed from the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Houston due to a quadriceps injury.
Carter was originally slated to start in center field, but he's since been replaced by Sam Haggerty. According to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, Carter is dealing with right quad tightness, though manager Bruce Bochy called the outfielder's late scratch cautionary. Landry also reports that Carter was already slated to begin on the bench Sunday, and with the Rangers off Monday, that means Carter will get three total days of rest before potentially returning to action Tuesday versus the Yankees.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Elevates to leadoff
Carter batted leadoff and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 2-1 win over Colorado.
Carter moved up to leadoff because Josh Smith was unavailable due to back soreness. Carter swiped a base for the second consecutive game and is batting .240/.269/.360 in seven games since his return to the majors.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Swipes bag in win
Carter went 2-for-5 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-1 win over Detroit.
Carter stole his first base since being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock last week. In six games for Texas, he's batting .273 (6-for-22) with a home run, two RBI and three runs scored. He should continue to get regular starts in center field against right-handers.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Launches first homer
Carter started in center field and went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 10-3 win over the Tigers.
The Rangers turned Comerica Park into a launching pad, homering four times in the first three innings off Jack Flaherty and five times overall. Carter poked his first homer of the season in the second inning. Since being called up, he's started in center field whenever the Rangers have faced a right-hander.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Sitting out versus Skubal
Carter is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Detroit.
It's not yet clear whether Carter will be in a strict platoon in center field, but he's sitting out Friday versus lefty Tarik Skubal after starting each of the previous three contests against righties. Sam Haggerty is in center field and batting leadoff for the Rangers in the series opener.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Collects two hits in season debut
Carter started in center field and went 2-for-5 with a run scored in Tuesday's 6-1 win over Boston.
Carter was called up from Triple-A Round Rock earlier in the day and made his season debut for the Rangers. Two days earlier, Texas placed its primary center fielder for much of the season, Leody Taveras, on outright waivers, opening up a role for the lefty-hitting Carter. He has an opportunity to take hold of the strong side of a platoon in center. Taveras was eventually claimed by the Mariners and is out of the organization. Carter had one hit in three at-bats against left-handers Tuesday and could become an everyday player if he shows improvement against southpaws (.263 career OPS).

Rangers' Evan Carter: Promotion made official
The Rangers recalled Carter from Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday.
A move that was reported to be in the works Monday has now been made official. Carter rebounded from a slow start with Round Rock to slash .271/.327/.500 with two home runs and three stolen bases across his last 12 contests. He is starting in center field and batting seventh for the Rangers on Tuesday in Boston and should take over as the team's primary center fielder, at least against right-handers.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Poised for return to majors
The Rangers will recall Carter from Triple-A Round Rock prior to Tuesday's game in Boston, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Carter failed to earn an Opening Day roster spot and got off to a sluggish start with Round Rock, but he had begun to heat up in his last 12 games, slashing .271/.327/.500 with two home runs and three stolen bases. With Leody Taveras on outright waivers and Josh Smith a better fit as a super-utility player, Carter should get an opportunity to be the Rangers' primary center fielder, at least against right-handed pitching. Texas is tentatively scheduled to face all righties this week.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Could be candidate for promotion
The Rangers could look to promote Carter from Triple-A Round Rock after placing Leody Taveras on outright waivers Sunday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Taveras could stick around in the Texas organization if no other team is willing to put in a claim for him and if he doesn't elect free agency after the waiver process concludes, but he would be taken off the Rangers' 40-man roster and would have to report to the minors. In any case, Taveras' expected removal from the roster would create a need for an extra outfielder, and Carter would seem to be a logical option to replace him. After failing to win a spot on the Opening Day roster following a rough spring training, Carter got off to a slow start at Round Rock but has picked up the pace at the plate since about mid-April, slashing .271/.327/.500 with two home runs and three stolen bases over his last 12 games. Carter could provide a shot in the arm to a Rangers offense that currently ranks 27th in the majors with a team .282 wOBA for the season.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Overcomes hand injury
Carter (hand) has appeared in three of Triple-A Round Rock's last five games, going 2-for-7 with a solo home run, two walks, two stolen bases and an additional run.
Carter was lifted late in Round Rock's 16-3 loss to Oklahoma City on Tuesday, but he was back in the lineup a day later, suggesting that his removal was merely out of an abundance of caution. The 22-year-old is hitting just .138 over 29 at-bats with Round Rock on the season, and he may need an extended stretch of strong production at the dish with the Triple-A club before he receives another look with the Rangers.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Injures hand at Triple-A
Carter was removed Tuesday in the eighth inning of Triple-A Round Rock's 16-3 loss to Oklahoma City after his hand was struck by a pitch on a bunt attempt, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
The Rangers haven't provided word whether Carter suffered a fracture or is merely dealing with bruising and/or soreness, but even a minor injury would likely be enough to take him out of consideration for a call-up if Wyatt Langford -- who exited Texas' 10-6 loss to the Cubs on Tuesday due to oblique tightness -- requires a stint on the injured list. Even before getting hurt, Carter hadn't gained much momentum in his bid to return to the big leagues; he's gotten off to a 2-for-22 start to the season at Triple-A, though his 7:7 K:BB over 29 plate appearances has been promising.
