In case anyone missed it, Deivi Garcia is doing some great things for the New York Yankees. Since debuting last month, the diminutive right-hander has posted a 3.06 ERA in just three starts.
Naturally, both Garcia’s teammates and Yankees fans across the board are overflowing with excitement. It also helps it was a quality start from Garcia that kicked off New York’s current five-game winning streak. With veteran lefty James Paxton nursing an injured elbow, it seems the 21-year-old will be in the starting rotation for the foreseeable future.
And though Deivi Garcia’s emergence will help keep the Yankees’ rotation afloat come the playoffs, this is only half the story.
