Avisail Garcia Suffers Setback
1 year agoMiami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back), who has been out since April 29 with left-back tightness, suffered a setback while playing in his fourth minor-league rehab game for Triple-A Jacksonville on June 2. Garcia will be re-evaluated by doctors in Miami and will now have his timetable pushed back. He was initially placed on the 10-day injured list on May 2 (retroactive to April 29). The 31-year-old veteran outfielder had just 13 hits in his first 69 at-bats (.188 average) over 22 games for the Fish before his injury, so he should be on the waiver wire in most mixed leagues for now. Depending on what the doctors find, there's a good chance that Garcia will need to go on another rehab assignment before returning to the big leagues.
