On Sunday, the San Francisco Giants made a subtle bullpen move, recalling right-handed pitcher Rico Garcia and optioning left-handed pitcher Andrew Suárez.
Garcia has made 9 appearances this year, and accrued an ERA of 7.50 and an FIP of 5.30. In 6 innings he’s allowed 12 hits and 2 walks while striking out 3.
Suárez, a former second-round pick, has made 5 appearances, and has a 5.14 ERA and 6.00 FIP. In 7 innings he’s given up 9 hits and 5 walks while striking out 4.
Welcome back, Rico.
Did Barry Bonds hit a home run today?
Yep.
