Could RHP Yimi García be the Miami Marlins Closer?
Yimi García is one of the 40 lucky ones in Miami Marlins Spring Training camp on the “protected” roster.
Along with 25 non-roster invitees, and a few minor leaguers here and there, Yimi García is doing his best to get into game-shape for the Miami Marlins regular season.
García is a six-foot, 225. lb. right-hander from Moca in the DR, the 29-year-old reliever signed a one-year, $1.1 million contract with the Marlins on December 20th. It’s a deal sprinkled with minor incentives, namely, bonuses of $50,000 each for 40, 50, 60, and 70 games pitched.
