Taking seat against southpaw Carter is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

Impact Though he drew the start in center field during Tuesday's 10-0 win while left-hander Sammy Peralta opened the game for the Rockies, the left-handed-hitting Carter batted out of the No. 9 spot in the lineup. Carter will be left out of the starting nine for the series finale while the Rangers go up against a more traditional lefty starter in Kyle Freeland.

Goes deep in win Carter went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Cubs.

Impact Carter gave the Rangers breathing room with his eighth-inning homer, the second in five games and fifth of the season for the outfielder. All five of his homers have come against right-handers, as the left-handed batter has just one single in 23 at-bats when facing a lefty. If there's any value to be had from Carter, who's slashing .176/.308/.653, it's his six steals through 39 games.

Rips fourth homer in win Carter went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Yankees.

Impact Carter went deep for the first time since April 23, which was also his last multi-RBI effort. The 23-year-old outfielder still has a long way to go before commanding more fantasy attention, though. Across 130 trips to the plate to this point, Carter is slashing a paltry .178/.299/.336 with four big flies, five doubles, 11 RBI and five stolen bases.

Makes defensive impact Tuesday Carter went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI single during Texas' 5-1 win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

Impact Carter put the Rangers on the board with an RBI single to right field. However, his biggest impact in Tuesday's game came in the fifth, when he scaled the fence in center field to rob Oneil Cruz of a three-run home run, which would have given the Pirates a 5-2 lead. Carter has logged one RBI in each of his last three games but has struggled at the plate this season, slashing .197/.333/.348 with three steals, two home runs, seven RBI and a 14:18 BB:K in 83 plate appearances.

Receiving day off against lefty Carter is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

Impact Carter has now been left out of the starting lineup five times through the Rangers' first 19 games, with each absence coinciding with Texas facing a left-handed starter. Though Carter's overall volume of playing time will remain suppressed if the Rangers continue to treat him as a strict platoon player, the 23-year-old has more than held his own versus righties thus far, producing a .238/.385/.452 slash line (145 wRC+) over 52 plate appearances against them.

Slugs homer in win Carter went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two walks in Sunday's 5-2 victory over the Dodgers.

Impact Carter tied the game at one apiece in the third inning, turning on a Roki Sasaki fastball and sending it over the right-field fence for his second homer of the series. The outfielder's .233 batting average isn't overly impressive, but nine walks have boosted his on-base percentage to .365, giving the 23-year-old an .807 OPS through 15 games. Carter is penciled in as the primary center fielder against right-handed pitching.

Homer, steal in loss Carter went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 8-7 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Carter was part of a ninth-inning comeback for the Rangers, lifting his first homer of the season off Edwin Diaz. The outfielder has four extra-base hits this season, and he's also up to two steals after swiping a bag earlier in the game. Carter could be more consistent at the plate -- he's batting .237 with a .736 OPS, three RBI and six runs scored over 13 contests, but he is seeing steady playing time in center field and should stick there regularly against right-handed pitchers.
