Garcia (biceps) has been cleared to throw but won't be ready for spring training, Steve Adams of MLB Trade Rumors reports. Garcia was sidelined for the entire 2023 season due to a left issue, but he's already drawing interest now that he's gotten the green light to begin throwing. Adams notes that while Garcia likely won't be ready for game action until May, there are already a few teams who have expressed interest in the southpaw.

The Pirates declined Garcia's (biceps) $3.25 million option for 2024 on Saturday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Garcia didn't pitch at all this season due to a nerve issue in his left biceps, which seemed to make it a given that his option wouldn't be picked up. It's unclear what his current health status is as he heads into free agency.

Garcia (biceps) remains unable to grip a baseball, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Garcia is dealing with a nerve issue in his left biceps and it doesn't appear he's any closer to starting a throwing program. He's already on the 60-day injured list.

Garcia (biceps) was placed on the 60-day injured list Thursday. Garcia was diagnosed earlier this month with a nerve issue in his left biceps and is going to be in no-throw mode through at least mid-April.

Garcia was diagnosed Thursday with an injury to the nerves in his left biceps and will be shut down from throwing for at least the next month, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports. Garcia has undergone a range of different tests since leaving a Grapefruit League game back on March 4 due to tightness in his upper left arm. It sounds like the Pirates might have found the root of the issue, but there is no exact timetable for when he might be ready again to take the mound. Given the length of the initial shutdown, the 30-year-old shouldn't be expected back until at least late May.
