Heads to Atlanta on MiLB deal
Atlanta signed Garcia to a minor-league contract Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Garcia did not play MLB-affiliated ball in 2023 after being released by the White Sox in the spring, but he just completed an impressive run in the Dominican Winter League and will function as organizational depth for the reigning NL East champs in 2024. The 32-year-old can play just about anywhere defensively.

Garcia was solid in a utility role for the White Sox in 2021 with a .711 OPS, but his offense cratered last season with a .210/.233/.267 slash line in 97 games. He had a miniscule 2.3 percent walk rate and was one of the least valuable players in all of baseball with minus-1.1 fWAR. Garcia inked three-year, $16.5 million deal in November 2021 and is likely to open 2023 with a regular role given his solid defense and versatility to play all over the field, but he'll need to bounce back offensively in order to retain any semblance of playing time as the season unfolds. Even with an offensive rebound, the 90 wRC+ he had over the prior five seasons doesn't provide much of a reason for fantasy managers to give Garcia much consideration.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might be moved by trade deadline
Garcia could be traded if the White Sox fall farther back in the wild-card race, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Garcia has five homers and eight stolen bases with a .293/.327/.395 line over 336 plate appearances. The switch hitter has done a solid job in center field this season, which could make him attractive as at least a defensive replacement off the bench for a contender, but that move may jeopardize his playing-time-reliant fantasy value.
