The Mets claimed Garcia off waivers from the Yankees on Monday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Scouting Report
Uses his strong lower base to generate pretty good fastball velocity, plus he adds two solid off-speed pitches (changeup and curve) that complement his heater nicely. Lacks ideal height and overall bulk for Major League Baseball, but he seems to get the job done as a bit of an overachiever. Gets into major trouble when he walks too many hitters.
Long Range Potential: Depth right-hander.
