Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia hit a three-run home run and walked twice in a 16-3 win over the Twins on Thursday. The slugger was stuck in a massive slump, so much so that he was benched for three games a week ago to mentally reset. The break seemingly worked wonders, as he has picked […]

The Los Angeles Angels are calling up infield prospect Christian Moore from Triple-A Salt Lake after taking him eighth overall in last year's MLB draft out of Tennessee, sources tell FanSided's Robert Murray.
