Rangers Move Evan Carter to Injured List, Recall Cody Freeman The Texas Rangers won't have center fielder Evan Carter for at least the next 10 days after he was moved to the injured list on Saturday.

6 DAYS AGO • SI.COM

Lands on IL The Rangers placed Carter (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Carter seemed to have been injured while making a diving catch in the fourth inning Friday versus Boston, as he was pulled from the contest in the fifth. The 23-year-old has subsequently been diagnosed with an oblique strain, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News, and will miss at least 10 days (though oblique issues often require longer than that to heal). Cody Freeman was recalled from the minors to take Carter's spot on the 26-man roster, and Michael Helman could see the bulk of the starts in center field while Carter is sidelined.

Not in Friday's lineup Carter is not in the Rangers' starting lineup against the Guardians on Friday.

Impact Carter will take a seat for Friday's series opener after going 1-for-9 with two runs and five strikeouts in his three outings since returning from a two-game absence due to a left foot injury. Wyatt Langford, Michael Helman and Brandon Nimmo will start in the outfield from left to right.

Joc Pederson leads Rangers past Cardinals 7-4 for 5th straight win

JUNE 3 • Associated Press

Checking back into starting nine Carter (foot) will start in center field and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Cardinals.

Impact Carter will make his return to the lineup after a two-game absence due to a sore left foot, which stemmed from being hit by an 86.9-mph slider during Friday's 9-1 win over the Royals. The 23-year-old had made enough progress for the Rangers to make him available for Sunday's series finale, but he ultimately went unused in a 6-3 victory. Though Carter is ostensibly healthy again, fantasy managers will have to decide whether chasing the upside he provides in the stolen-base category is worth the damage he inflicts in batting average. Carter enters Monday's contest batting just .175 on the season, with that average placing him 159th among MLB's 160 qualified hitters.

JUNE 1 • Associated Press

Available off bench Sunday Carter (foot) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Impact Michael Helman will pick up a second straight start in center field in place of Carter, who was removed from Friday's 9-1 win after being hit on the left foot by an 86.9-mph slider in the seventh inning. According to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, tests on Carter's foot came back clean, but the 23-year-old is still dealing with some soreness. Carter will be available off the bench Sunday, but the Rangers may prefer to stay away from him to ensure that he's ready to go for Monday's series opener in St. Louis.

Getting X-rays on foot Carter, who isn't starting Saturday versus the Royals, is getting "precautionary" X-rays on his left foot, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Carter was hit on his left foot by an 86.9 mph slider from Eli Morgan in the seventh inning on Friday. He was able to stay in the game, but he's still feeling some soreness, so the Rangers are sending him in for imaging. Michael Helman is taking over in center field in Carter's absence Saturday.

MAY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Beginning on bench Saturday Carter isn't in the Rangers' starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against Kansas City.

Impact Carter frequently sits against lefty starters, but this time he's being held out of the lineup versus right-hander Seth Lugo. Michael Helman will man center field for Texas in Carter's stead. Carter was hit by a pitch Friday, but it's unclear if that has anything to do with him being held out Saturday, per Matthew Postins of SI.com.
