Luis Garcia Pulled From Rehab Assignment
4 months agoHouston Astros right-hander Luis Garcia (elbow) has been returned from his minor-league rehab assignment. Garcia, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery last May, hasn't pitched since July 4 at Double-A Corpus Christi. He made two rehab appearances with the Hooks but apparently didn't bounce back well from those outings, and his rehab assignment is now on pause. It's unclear when the 27-year-old Venezuelan hurler will be cleared to resume his rehab assignment, but when he does, he's probably going to need the full 30-day window before he's reinstated to the major-league roster. Whenever he does make his 2024 debut, fantasy managers will want to temper expectations. In four big-league seasons with the Astros, Garcia has gone 28-19 with a 3.61 ERA (3.79 FIP) and 1.16 WHIP with a 25.3% strikeout rate in 352 innings pitched.
