Scouting Report:
Extremely intelligent,
Carter is a real student of hitting, and has demonstrated success with the
bat at every level. Excellent
power with the potential for more. Hits for average and
consistently gets on base at a very good clip.
Hits lefties and righties well.
Below average speed. In the field, Carter has
spent much of his career at 1B but was essentially converted to a full
time leftfielder in 2008. He has always been known as a poor
fielder. He has focused on his glove and footwork and has improved
slightly, but still not enough. His arm is likely not going to be strong
enough to play right.
