Robert Garcia Earns Third Save Of Season Tuesday
Robert Garcia earned his third save of the season in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Blue Jays. Garcia came in to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by two and shut the door with a 1-2-3 performance, including two strikeouts. Luke Jackson, who leads the team in saves, pitched the eighth inning with the score tied 0-0. Garcia has pitched well this season, converting three of four save opportunities with 10 holds to go with a 2.35 ERA, a 1.00 WHIP, and an 8.22 K/9 rate in 23 innings of work. The Rangers have implemented four different relievers in save situations over the last 15 days, and Garcia is tied for the most opportunities in that time with three. The team appears to be in flux when it comes to determining a potential closer, but Garcia has the sturdiest peripherals, making him worth considering for fantasy managers in deeper roto leagues.
