Luis Garcia Jr. to Have MRI on his Wrist on Monday
Washington Nationals infielder Luis Garcia Jr. (wrist) is heading for an MRI exam on his injured wrist on Monday, manager Blake Butera told Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports. Garcia felt his right wrist while swinging on Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers and was replaced at first base in the sixth inning by Curtis Mead. For now, the Nationals are classifying the 25-year-old's injury as wrist soreness, but we should know more soon. With a scheduled day off on Monday, perhaps Garcia will be feeling good enough to play in Tuesday's series opener against the visiting Minnesota Twins if his MRI comes back clean. Before he was pulled from Sunday's series finale against Milwaukee, Garcia went 0-for-2 at the plate, and he's now hitting just .234/.259/.336 with a .595 OPS, one home run, 16 RBI, 14 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 107 at-bats in 2026. Garcia is currently rostered in 45% of Yahoo leagues.
