Carter is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Carter had started in center field in each of the previous three contests, but he'll be given a breather against southpaw Bailey Falter. After a two-game absence, Wyatt Langford (back) has been cleared to rejoin the starting nine and will replace Carter in center field while Sam Haggerty picks up another start in left.

Carter batted seventh and went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 6-2 win over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Carter had a brief stint at leadoff while Josh Smith was unavailable due to a hamstring issue. With Smith returning Friday, Carter was back to the second half of the order. The stolen base was his sixth in 26 games.

Carter is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
The left-handed-hitting Carter will head to the bench while the Royals send southpaw Kris Bubic to the bump. Though Carter has produced an .860 OPS over 23 games on the season, he's logged just seven of his 75 plate appearances against southpaws, and the Rangers may continue to limit his exposure to same-handed pitching.

Carter batted leadoff and went 0-for-2 in Tuesday's 6-1 loss to the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Carter was moved up in the order to take the place of Josh Smith (hamstring), who was unavailable and may be out for another day or two. Carter's having a moment right now, going 11-for-24 with three home runs, three doubles and seven RBI over the last eight games. The Royals are expected to throw left-hander Kris Bubic on Wednesday, which likely means Carter will not be part of the starting lineup.

Carter (wrist) will start in center field and bat fifth in Sunday's game against the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Carter had been expected to miss out on a second straight start after the Rangers' initial lineup didn't include the 22-year-old, but he'll be back in center field after his sore right wrist responded better than expected to pregame work. Fantasy managers will hope that the injury Carter suffered Friday won't disrupt his timing at the plate. Since returning from a quadriceps strain June 3, he's slashed .407/484/.815 with three home runs, two doubles, two stolen bases and a 4:4 BB:K in 10 games.

Carter (wrist) entered Saturday's game as a pinch runner in the bottom of the 11th inning and scored the winning run.
EDGE Analysis
Carter hurt his wrist diving for a ball during Friday's game and is expected to remain out of the starting lineup through the weekend. That doesn't mean he can't contribute with his legs, however. The Rangers are hoping Carter can resume full duties Tuesday.

Carter (wrist) got tests on his sore right wrist and isn't expected to return to the starting lineup until at least Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carter is out of the starting lineup Saturday after departing Friday's matchup early due to wrist soreness that likely was a consequence of a diving catch he made in the fourth inning. While he won't start Sunday either, Carter could be available as a pinch runner this weekend. The hope among the Rangers is that the outfielder could be back Tuesday against Kansas City following an off day Monday.

Manager Bruce Bochy said after Friday's win over the White Sox that he believes Carter's wrist injury isn't anything too serious, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carter was pulled from Friday's game in the seventh inning after injuring his wrist on a diving catch in the fourth. Bochy added that the team will likely look to give the 22-year-old outfielder a day off to recover Saturday, but he shouldn't need much more time than that before returning to the lineup. Josh Smith and Sam Haggerty are the most likely candidates to take Carter's place in center field while he sits.

EDGE Analysis

Carter went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two total RBI, an additional run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 16-3 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Carter has been red hot at the plate of late, logging four straight multi-hit games -- he's gone 10-for-16 with three homers, five extra-base hits and a pair of stolen bases while striking out just once in that span. The 22-year-old outfielder has boosted his slash line to .293/.369/.534 through 65 plate appearances this season with four homers, 10 RBI, 12 runs scored and five stolen bases.
