The Rangers placed Carter (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Saturday.
Carter suffered the injury while making a diving catch Friday versus Boston and has subsequently been diagnosed with an oblique strain, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News, and he will miss at least 10 days -- though oblique issues often require a longer absence. Cody Freeman was recalled from the minors to take Carter's spot on the 26-man roster, and Michael Helman could see the bulk of the starts in center field while Carter is sidelined.
