Mariners' Brandyn Garcia: Good showing for Travelers
Garcia logged a 2.83 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB in 47.2 innings across 13 starts for Double-A Arkansas this season.
Garcia has a few obvious things going for him, in that he's a lefty in a good developmental organization for pitching prospects with a pitcher-friendly big-league park. His stuff is decent enough to potentially profile in the middle of the rotation, but his command is iffy and he walked 10.1 percent of batters at Double-A as a 24-year-old. Garcia was lights out earlier in the year against younger hitters at High-A, logging a 1.84 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 85 strikeouts and a 59.5 percent groundball rate in 68.1 innings.
