Avisail Garcia Not Starting Monday
2 years agoMiami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (wrist) is not in the starting lineup on Monday against the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Logan Webb. Garcia was hit by a pitch on his right wrist on Sunday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, but X-rays came back negative and he's considered day-to-day for now. The 31-year-old could return to the lineup as soon as Tuesday, depending on how he feels. The veteran outfielder is off to a slow start in 2023 with a .162 average (6-for-37) with a double, solo home run and three runs scored in his first 12 games with the team after hitting only .224 with eight home runs in 98 games in his first year in Miami in 2022. Jesus Sanchez is starting in right field and hitting seventh on Monday against Webb.
