Guardians' Justin Garza: Back in action
Garza (lat) returned to action for Triple-A Columbus on Saturday. He allowed two runs (one earned) on a hit and three walks while recording just one out (via strikeout) versus Triple-A Buffalo.
This was Garza's season debut, as a right lat strain kept him out of action for nearly two months. The 28-year-old got his first taste of major-league play last year, but he'll likely need to prove himself again at Columbus before potentially being a candidate to join the Guardians' bullpen this year.

Guardians' Justin Garza: Out with lat strain
Garza has been placed on the 7-day minor-league injured list with a right lat strain.

Guardians' Justin Garza: Goes unclaimed off waivers
The Guardians outrighted Garza to Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday.
Garza was one of three Guardians players who cleared waivers Wednesday after recently being removed from the 40-man roster. The 27-year-old right-hander should still be in line for an invitation to big-league spring training, but his lack of a 40-man spot will make it tough for him to secure a spot in Cleveland's Opening Day bullpen. He made 21 relief appearances for Cleveland in 2021, submitting a 4.71 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 28.2 innings.

Indians' Justin Garza: Works two innings Sunday
Garza allowed one run on four hits and a walk with three strikeouts in two innings during Sunday's 5-2 loss to the White Sox.
The right-hander has covered more than one inning in just two of his seven September appearances. Garza has logged a 4.23 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 28:17 K:BB across 27.2 innings to begin his big-league career. The 27-year-old will likely remain in a low-leverage role to finish the season, although he's made noticeable improvements after a few rough patches in July and August.

Indians' Justin Garza: Becoming more consistent
Garza allowed three hits and struck out two in 1.2 innings in Monday's 5-2 loss to Minnesota.
In four of his last five appearances, Garza has managed to keep runs off the board despite allowing six hits and four walks in that span covering 5.2 innings. The right-hander has trimmed his ERA down to 3.97, but a 1.41 WHIP and 22:13 K:BB are hardly encouraging signs, albeit in a small 22.2-inning sample. The 27-year-old will likely continue to fill a low-leverage role for the final month of the season.

The right-hander has yielded seven runs (six earned) in his last 3.2 innings across four appearances. He owns a 4.76 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 16:9 K:BB through 17 innings as a low-leverage reliever.
