Luis Garcia's Injury Isn't Season-Ending
4 months agoBoston Red Sox right-handed reliever Luis Garcia (shoulder), who has a 10.32 ERA in 11 appearances since joining the Red Sox, was placed on the 15-day injured list before the team's game on Tuesday with right-shoulder inflammation. Manager Alex Cora said the injury isn't season-ending, though, but there was no immediate word on the severity of the injury. "Just get treatment and see where we're at in the upcoming days and just go from there," Cora said. The 37-year-old veteran could probably use the time off after joining Boston in a trade from the Los Angeles Angels at the end of July. The Dominican hurler has gone 5-1 overall this year with a 5.07 ERA (4.19 FIP), a 1.33 WHIP, a career-high four saves, 51 strikeouts and 15 walks in 55 innings. Garcia had more fantasy intrigue in deeper leagues when he was in Anaheim.
