Evan Carter to See Full-Time At-Bats?
Texas Rangers outfielder Evan Carter is looking competent enough against left-handed pitching so far in spring training that he could earn at-bats against southpaws early in the season, according to manager Skip Schumaker. The left-handed hitter is 5-for-60 (.083) against LHP so far in the big leagues, so we'll see if Schumaker stays true to his word. The former second-round draft pick is looking to log a full season after tallying just 63 games last year and 45 games in 2024 due to various injuries. The 23-year-old has a ton of speed that should give him some fantasy intrigue even in a platoon situation, as he stole 14 bags in his limited action last year and has already proclaimed a personal goal of 30 steals in 2026. The 6-foot-2 slugger has a pair of home runs and one steal so far in eight Cactus League games. If he can stay healthy while gaining some additional at-bats versus LHP, Carter could be a value pick at the end of drafts, currently with an ADP of 318, while RotoBaller ranks him at 303 overall.
