Dodgers Sign Luis Garcia To Minor-League Deal
1 day agoAccording to Aram Leighton of Just BB Media, the Los Angeles Dodgers have signed right-handed pitcher Luis Garcia to a minor-league contract that includes an invite to spring training. The 38-year-old opened the 2024 campaign with the Los Angeles Angels before finishing the season with the Boston Red Sox. With the Angels, he was quite effective, holding a 3.71 ERA with a 1.17 WHIP across 43 2/3 innings. However, in Boston, Garcia posted an 8.22 ERA and a 1.63 WHIP in 15 1/3 innings of work. Under the hood, Garcia generated a solid 3.56 xERA and an above-average 50.3 percent ground-ball rate, which were both above the average marks. However, he tallied strikeouts at a low 20.9 percent rate. If he makes the major league roster, Garcia will likely have a low-leverage role in the Dodgers bullpen.
