Garcia’s Return Could Save the Bullpen | Texas Rangers News

Rangers’ bullpen got a major boost with Robert Garcia’s return from a 122-game injury absence, and he’s already making waves. After struggling with command earlier in the season, Garcia has dominated since coming back — retiring nine straight batters in his first three outings and striking out four without issuing a walk in his latest appearance. Manager Skip Schumaker called him “extremely valuable,” praising his work in pitching labs and his nasty changeup that now tops 95 mph. With the bullpen ranking fourth-worst in ERA between the fifth and seventh innings, Garcia’s high-leverage experience could be the key to turning things around. Schumaker’s message is clear: ride the hot arms — and Garcia’s looking like the hottest one in the pen. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
