Adonis Garcia might be my favorite member of the current Atlanta Braves.
His skill is not commensurate with my admiration. Garcia is an undersized masher, a modern-day Matt Stairs if Stairs was right-handed, hadn’t broken into the big leagues until he was 30 years old and fudged his height (if Adonis is 5-9, I’m 7-2).
An eight-year old behind the wheel of a Maserati would be less adventurous than Garcia when he mans third base for the Braves, and his walk-rate is so soul-crushingly distressing that he makes Jeff Francoeur look patient by comparison.
