Luis Garcia To Start Game 6 Of ALCS
3 years agoHouston Astros right-hander Luis Garcia (knee) will start Game 6 of the American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox on Friday. Garcia was only able to go one inning against Boston in his Game 2 start, allowing five runs and leaving with a right knee strain. His knee had been a problem before his start last Saturday, but Garcia has since made some changes to the lower half of his body to ensure that he won't put added stress on his knee. Garcia isn't worried about his knee and said it "feels good." The AL Rookie of the Year candidate went 6-5 with a 2.39 ERA at home, compared to 5-3 with a 4.24 ERA on the road in 2021. Garcia has the talent to keep Boston's bats cold, but he'll be a much riskier DFS play with the knee issue fresh in the rearview mirror.
