Luis Garcia: 0.1 fWAR, 61 G, 59.2 IP, 4.07 ERA, 1.391 WHIP, 53 K, 24 BB, 6 HR, 6 HBP
Jose Espada (Minors and Majors): 35 G, 83.1 IP, 2.81 ERA, 1.926 WHIP, 110 K, 44 BB, 7 HR, 2 HBP
Positives From This Season
There definitely were some struggles from Garcia this season but he didn’t allow an earned run in May and finished 2023 with a 1.96 ERA in his final 22 games and 23 innings of 2023 (post trade deadline).
I’m not going to act like I know a ton about Espada but it’s still a great accomplishment for him to go from Double-A San Antonio to Triple-A El Paso to the major league club this season.
