Mitch Garver Taking Day Off Against Angels
1 year agoTexas Rangers catcher Mitch Garver is taking the day off on Thursday against the Los Angeles Angels. Garver suffered a serious knee injury just six games into the regular season in early April and didn't return to the Rangers until June 3. In eight games since his return from the injured list, he's hit .300 (9-for-30) with four doubles, a home run and five RBI, but he's slowed down of late with just three hits and no home runs in 14 at-bats in his last four contests. It seems like a good time for him to get off his feet on Thursday in the series finale against the Halos. The 32-year-old backstop will continue to split time behind the dish with Jonah Heim while also getting at-bats as the designated hitter.
