The 30-year-old shortstop is hitting .255/.317/.436 with three homers for his only three RBI across 60 plate appearances.

It wasn’t entirely a given that Carter would be the choice to replace Leody Taveras, what with the desire to keep getting Josh Smith regular at-bats and Carter not really thriving in Triple-A. Carter did turn it on during the second half of last month, but his overall line stands at .221/.333/.416 in 90 plate appearances. He offers mixed-league potential, but he doesn’t seem worth an immediate pickup.

The 26-year-old outfielder can continue to play for the Rangers while on waivers. If he’s claimed, the team that claims him would have to assume the remainder of his $4.75 million salary for the 2025 season, which would be roughly $3.9 million. If he goes unclaimed, he would have the option to forfeit his remaining salary and elect free agency, or report to Triple-A Round Rock. Taveras has slashed just .241/.259/.342 in 79 at-bats for the Rangers this season with one home run, eight RBI and six stolen bases.

The triple on a grounder down the first-base line was the only extra-base hit either team had today. After a nice start, Smith had slumped the last couple of weeks, but he still seems locked into regular at-bats for the foreseeable future. He’s back up to .311/.386/.478 after this.

Winn will get some extra time to rest and recover after making an early exit from the second game of Sunday’s doubleheader against the Mets with a mild left ankle sprain. The 23-year-old shortstop told reporters he’s aiming to return to Tuesday’s lineup after waking up feeling better than expected. It’ll be Jose Barrero at shortstop on Monday night in his absence.

Rocchio is down to .183/.258/.220 for the year, and his defense hasn’t graded out particularly well, either. The Guardians are going with Gabriel Arias at short and Daniel Schneeman at second again today. Rocchio has to be in significant danger of getting sent to Triple-A.

The positive news for fantasy managers is that both X-rays and an MRI didn’t reveal anything serious after Volpe suffered a left shoulder injury during Saturday’s showdown against the Rays. The 24-year-old is back at shortstop and hitting sixth on Monday night following a brief one-game absence. It’s a situation fantasy managers should continue to monitor, but it doesn’t seem like he’s going to miss any additional time.
