Anthony Garcia is turning heads at the Yankees complex

During the 2017 international free agency period, the Yankees inked a player who flew a little bit under the radar at the time. Although well-known to scouts and ranked as the 28th-best prospect in the signing period by Baseball America, Anthony Garcia fell below the headline names who signed with the Yankees that year, such as Everson Pereira and Raimfer Salinas. The switch-hitting outfielder quickly turned heads when his official measurements of 6-feet, 5-inches and 204 pounds as a 17-year-old were matched by his prodigious power from both sides of the plate. Garcia is now raking in the Florida Complex League and putting up numbers to match his stature.
