BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 63% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: If Garcia were a robot, he would have blossomed into one of the premier southpaws in baseball years ago. He’s failed to crack 150 innings since 2011, which feels like an eternity. After years of shoulder woes, he’s finally healthy and has done a masterful job stepping into the St. Louis rotation in the wake of the season-ending injury to Adam Wainwright.
Through six starts, Garcia owns a 1.76 ERA, 0.90 WHIP along with 28 strikeouts and just seven walks. That last number is even more impressive considering five of them came in his first game back. He’s still available in 40% of fantasy leagues, and that number needs to be much lower. If you’re in need of a quality back-end of a fantasy rotation starter, Garcia can fill the void.
