Evan Carter is a fantasy baseball OF prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Evan Carter, OF, Texas Rangers
ANALYSIS: A number of heads turned when the Rangers announced Carter as their second-round selection in the 2020 draft. In the COVID season, few had seen Carter play, and he was not highly ranked coming into the draft.
Carter has been elite ever since, with a .290/.417/.478 minor league slash line over 150 games. He’s done better than that this year in his first taste of upper minors, hitting .378/.525/.600 as a 20-year-old in Double-A with more walks than strikeouts in the early season.
With the ability to handle center and the arm to handle a corner outfield spot, Carter could quickly move to the Rangers with his blend of contact skills and above-average power and speed really helping fantasy stat lines.
VERDICT: If he’s somehow available in even the most shallow dynasty format, jump on him! Carter could see significant major league time before the end of this season.
