Carter went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Angels.

The rookie outfielder has adjusted well to the majors, hitting .320 with a 1.146 OPS, 12 RBI, 14 runs scored and three stolen bases over 61 plate appearances. Carter should be able to maintain a strong-side platoon role into the postseason if the Rangers clinch a spot.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Sitting against lefty
Carter is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Blue Jays.
The top prospect hit his first big-league homer Monday and will take a seat the following day, although he will be available off the bench. It's worth noting that the lefty-hitting Carter is out of the mix for the second time in two chances against lefty starters since getting the call, so it seems like he will be a platoon bat in the short term.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Will be promoted Friday
The Rangers will promote Carter from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
With Adolis Garcia (knee) headed for the injured list, the Rangers will call up Carter in order to make up for the loss of a key bat. Carter is slashing .290/.415/.444 with 12 homers and 65 RBI between Double-A Frisco and Triple-A Round Rock. He's capable of playing all three outfield positions and is likely to see a decent share of playing time between Garcia's injury and Leody Taveras' offensive struggles.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Promotion being considered
The Rangers have considered a promotion of Carter from Triple-A Round Rock, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Grant's report was written Tuesday, one day before Adolis Garcia exited a game with a right knee injury. It remains unclear at this point how much time Garcia might miss, but it's reasonable to think any sort of absence for him would only increase the odds of the Rangers giving Carter a look. Carter has an .818 OPS in his first eight games with Round Rock after hitting .284/.411/.451 with 12 homers and 22 steals at Double-A Frisco. In addition to the injury concern with Garcia in right field, the reeling Rangers have also seen center fielder Leody Taveras' production drop off badly in the second half (.586 OPS). Carter has experience at all three outfield positions but is primarily a center fielder.
