Garcia went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run scored, an RBI and three stolen bases in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Pirates. The Royals went 6-for-6 on steal attempts on the day, with Garcia leading the charge. The 24-year-old snapped a 12-game drought on the basepaths with the performance, a stretch in which he batted just .147 (5-for-34) and failed to even score a run. On the season, Garcia is slashing .238/.284/.343 with seven homers, 36 steals, 56 RBI and 84 runs in 144 contests.

Garcia singled and stole second in his first trip to the plate, and he was later thrown out while attempting to swipe a second bag after drawing a walk in the fifth. The third baseman has hit safely in four straight games, batting .500 (7-for-14) with three RBI, four runs and three stolen bases. Garcia has also logged multiple hits in three of his last six games.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels. Garcia took a seat in back-to-back games for the first time all year Wednesday and Friday but returned to the lineup for a pair of games against the Reds over the weekend. Once again, the 24-year-old is absent from the starting nine, giving way to Paul DeJong at third base Monday.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports. Garcia will get a breather as the Royals wrap up their series in Minnesota with a day game after a night game. He had started in each of Kansas City's last eight games, going 8-for-32 (.250 average) with four runs, three RBI and one stolen base.

Garcia went 1-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Saturday's 8-3 win over the Cardinals. Garcia has gone 9-for-37 (.243) over nine contests in August, adding three doubles and three steals this month. The infielder is up to 28 thefts on 29 attempts this year after swiping a bag following his RBI single in the seventh inning. Garcia is at a .238/.287/.345 slash line, six home runs, 48 RBI, 73 runs scored, 21 doubles and five triples over 115 contests. While he's still been able to make an impact on the basepaths, he's gotten on base at a .258 clip since the start of June, which continues to limit his effectiveness in fantasy since he hasn't displayed much power.
