Rangers' Evan Carter: Hopes to swing bat in 9-to-10 weeks
Carter (back) said Sunday that he doesn't expect to require surgery and hopes to resume swinging a bat in 9-to-10 weeks, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Rangers general manager Chris Young said earlier this week that Carter was unlikely to make it back from the 60-day injured list before the regular season ends Sept. 29. Based on the timeline he provided for himself to resume swinging the bat, Carter already seems to be ruling himself out for the postseason, barring the Rangers making another trip to the World Series to extend their playoff run into late October and early November. After his star turn in the 2023 playoffs, Carter was tabbed as a leading contender for the 2024 American League Rookie of the Year award, but the 21-year-old slashed a lowly .188/.272/.361 in 162 plate appearances for Texas before being placed on the injured list May 28 with a lower-back stress reaction. Carter should still have an everyday role waiting for him in 2025, assuming he makes a full recovery from the back injury over the winter.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Likely out for regular season
Rangers GM Chris Young said Tuesday that Carter (back) isn't expected to play again during the regular season, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
The 21-year-old has been on the shelf since late May due to a lumbar sprain, and it appears he won't be rejoining the Rangers until at least October. Young didn't indicate that Carter has suffered a setback, but that the outfielder simply needs more time to rest his back. Wyatt Langford, Leody Taveras and Adolis Garcia should continue to operate as Texas' primary outfield down the stretch, with veterans Travis Jankowski and Robbie Grossman serving as reserve options.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Shifts to 60-day IL
The Rangers transferred Carter (back) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Carter has already missed more than two months after landing on the 10-day IL on May 28 with a lumbar sprain, so his move to the 60-day IL won't affect his timeline for a return to the big club. At this point, it's unclear whether Carter will even be able to play again in 2024, as he was shut down from baseball activities Friday and was scheduled to get a second opinion on his back injury from a doctor in California. The Rangers should provide an update on Carter's condition once his visit with the specialist is completed, but even if the outfielder is given the green light to resume baseball activities, he'll still likely need multiple weeks to ramp up before he would be ready for big-league action.

Rangers' Evan Carter: Getting second opinion
Carter was shut down from baseball activities Friday and will get a second opinion on his lower back soreness, MLB.com reports.
Carter is set to visit a specialist in California, and the Rangers will reassess the outfielder's condition and map out steps for his recovery pending the results of the appointment. "He's just not coming along like we were hoping," Texas manager Bruce Bochy said. There had been talk of Carter beginning a rehab assignment next week, but those plans are on hold.
