Wed Aug 23 202308:50Avisail Garcia Dealing With A Hamstring Issue
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) was removed from Tuesday's game prematurely after he tweaked his hamstring. According to Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald, the injury is being classified as a left hamstring strain. It's been a tough go for Garcia this season, as he owns a .185/.241/.315 slash line with three home runs, eight runs, 12 RBI, and two steals. The 32-year-old already dealt with a back injury earlier in the year, which has limited him to 37 games. Fantasy managers can consider Garcia day-to-day, but this news has little impact in any format.

Sun Jul 30 202312:07Avisail Garcia Reinstated From Injured List
The Miami Marlins reinstated outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned outfielder Dane Myers to Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move. Garcia is immediately back in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Tarik Skubal, playing right field and batting fifth in the lineup. The 32-year-old has been out since late April, so fantasy managers should expect some rust, especially since he was hitting just .188/.243/.333 in 22 games before going on the injured list. Garcia won't necessarily be a lineup regular in Miami, either, so he's not a must-add off the waiver wire in deep mixed leagues.

Sat Jul 29 202313:50Avisail Garcia Expected To Be Added To Active Roster Tomorrow
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) is expected to rejoin the team on Sunday, per beat writer Jordan McPherson. Garcia has been out since late April with a back issue so his return is a long time coming. He was slashing just .188/.243/.333 with three home runs over 22 games before his injury so there's not a whole lot of fantasy appeal here.

Fri Jul 28 202320:06Avisail Garcia Continues Rehab Assignment At Triple-A
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) was scheduled to play nine innings in right field for Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday. He entered the day going 3-for-8 with three walks, a double, one home run, three RBI and two strikeouts in three games for Jacksonville since restarting his rehab assignment. He initially began a rehab assignment at Jacksonville on May 29 and played in four games before suffering a setback. Garcia initially landed on the 10-day injured list on May 2 (retroactive to April 29). The 32-year-old veteran outfielder appears to be nearing a return to the big-league roster, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect everyday playing time for a contending Marlins team. He was hitting just .188 (13-for-69) with three homers and eight RBI in 22 games before his injury earlier this year.

Tue Jul 18 202314:06Avisail Garcia Restarting Rehab Assignment
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) is restarting a minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Pensacola on Tuesday. Garcia suffered a setback with his back injury after initially starting a rehab assignment, but he's now getting back to game action and could rejoin the Marlins roster in short order. The 32-year-old veteran hasn't played since April and was hitting just .188/.243/.333 with three home runs, a double, eight RBI and six runs scored in 22 games before his injury. Garcia hit .224 (80-for-357) with only eight long balls, nine doubles, 35 RBI, four stolen bases and 31 runs scored in 98 games for the Fish in his first year with the team. He hit a career-high 29 homers in 2021 with Milwaukee, but Garcia is injury-prone at this point in his career and has never reached the 30-homer mark in 11 seasons.

Tue Jul 4 202309:51Avisail Garcia Has Yet To Resume Baseball Activities
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) is still working out and running up to 80 percent, but he hasn't resumed baseball activities yet, and there is still no timetable for his return, according to MLB.com. The 32-year-old has been on the injured list since May 2 after suffering from back tightness. Garcia began a rehab assignment in late May but endured a setback after playing in four games. Across just 22 contests this season, the 12-year veteran owns a .188/.243/.333 slash line with three homers, six runs, eight RBI, and one stolen base. He struggled in 2022 to the tune of a .582 OPS, and fantasy managers in almost all leagues can drop Garcia for a healthy option on the waiver wire.

Tue Jun 20 202312:24Avisail Garcia Does Some Running
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) ran on the field on Monday. He started a minor-league rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville on May 29 and had played in four games before suffering a setback. He was initially placed on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 29) on May 2. It remains to be seen when the 32-year-old veteran will restart a rehab assignment, but it's a good sign that he's at least doing some baseball activities this week. Hopefully, he'll be able to rejoin the Marlins before the end of June. Garcia had played in just 22 games before his injury, and he was hitting a lowly .188 (13-for-69) with a double, three home runs, eight RBI and six runs scored in 76 plate appearances. He can be left to the waiver wire in mixed leagues for the foreseeable future.

Tue Jun 6 202311:59Avisail Garcia Suffers Setback
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (back), who has been out since April 29 with left-back tightness, suffered a setback while playing in his fourth minor-league rehab game for Triple-A Jacksonville on June 2. Garcia will be re-evaluated by doctors in Miami and will now have his timetable pushed back. He was initially placed on the 10-day injured list on May 2 (retroactive to April 29). The 31-year-old veteran outfielder had just 13 hits in his first 69 at-bats (.188 average) over 22 games for the Fish before his injury, so he should be on the waiver wire in most mixed leagues for now. Depending on what the doctors find, there's a good chance that Garcia will need to go on another rehab assignment before returning to the big leagues.

Tue May 2 202315:05Avisail Garcia Lands On IL, Marlins Call Up Xavier Edwards
The Miami Marlins placed outfielder Avisail Garcia (back) on the 10-day injured list with back tightness on Tuesday and called up infield prospect Xavier Edwards from the minors in a corresponding move. Perhaps this is good news for Garcia, as he can get some rest after starting 2023 with a putrid .188/.243/.333 slash line with a double, three home runs and eight RBI in 22 games. He can obviously be dropped in shallow mixed leagues. Edwards is the team's No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and he'll be making his MLB debut when he gets into a game. The 23-year-old switch-hitter was hitting .306 (22-for-72) with two doubles, a triple, four RBI and seven steals in 20 games for Triple-A Jacksonville before his call-up. Edwards will likely serve in a utility role off the bench, so he's probably not worth a pickup in mixed leagues just yet.

Sat Apr 29 202314:22Avisail Garcia Absent From Saturday's Starting Lineup
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia is missing from Saturday's lineup for the game against the Chicago Cubs. The one-time All-Star has been miserable at the dish, slashing .188/.243/.333 with three bombs, six runs, eight RBI, and one steal over 22 games. With Garcia on the bench, it will be Jesus Sanchez who takes his place and is batting sixth. The youngster is looking for better results, as he's batting .184 with one home run and three stolen bases through his first 19 games. Fantasy managers searching for an under-the-radar pick-up with some potential can turn to Sanchez, especially with Caleb Kilian on the hill for the Cubs, who has just 11.1 career innings under his belt.

Mon Apr 17 202314:57Avisail Garcia Not Starting Monday
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (wrist) is not in the starting lineup on Monday against the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Logan Webb. Garcia was hit by a pitch on his right wrist on Sunday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, but X-rays came back negative and he's considered day-to-day for now. The 31-year-old could return to the lineup as soon as Tuesday, depending on how he feels. The veteran outfielder is off to a slow start in 2023 with a .162 average (6-for-37) with a double, solo home run and three runs scored in his first 12 games with the team after hitting only .224 with eight home runs in 98 games in his first year in Miami in 2022. Jesus Sanchez is starting in right field and hitting seventh on Monday against Webb.

Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (wrist) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The right-handed slugger was hit by a 93 mph fastball in the wrist which led to his exit from the ballgame. Luckily, Garcia has avoided serious injury and has been diagnosed with a right wrist contusion. The X-rays came back negative, so the 31-year-old should be able to return to the lineup within the next few days.

Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 31-year-old hasn't played since being pulled out of Sunday's contest due to left hamstring soreness. The team hasn't placed Garcia on the injured list yet, so that's a good sign. Hopefully, Garcia only needs a few days off to rest. In the meantime, Jorge Soler will cover right field and bat cleanup against righty Aaron Nola on Tuesday.

Sun Apr 9 202319:49Avisail Garcia Removed Early On Sunday
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) was removed early during Sunday's game against the New York Mets. Garcia was pulled out of the game in the fifth inning due to left hamstring tightness. The severity of the injury is unknown, so it's uncertain whether or not Garcia will require a trip to the injured list. It's likely that the Marlins have Garcia undergo further testing before making another announcement. The 31-year-old hasn't done much at the plate anyway this season. He's hitting .103/.161/.207 with one homer and just one RBI in nine games.

Fri Sep 30 202200:23Avisail Garcia Slugs Grand Slam Thursday
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia hit a go-ahead grand slam in the eighth inning on Thursday to propel his team to a 4-2 win over the Brewers. His two-out shot off Freddy Peralta just cleared the right-center field fence for his only hit of the ball game as he finished the game going 1-for-4. The 31-year-old didn't live up to expectations in 2022 by hitting .230 with eight homers, 30 runs, 35 RBI, and four steals through 94 games as he's dealt with injuries nearly all season. At least he can finish out his season on a high note after his late-game heroics, but his stock is trending down heading into the offseason.

Tue Sep 27 202211:34Avisail Garcia Has A Hit In First Rehab Game
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) went 1-for-3 with a walk and a strikeout while serving as the designated hitter in his first minor league rehab game with Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday. Barring a setback on what will likely be a short rehab assignment in the minors, Garcia should return from the injured list at some point this week to finish off the 2022 regular season in the big leagues. After hitting a career-high 29 home runs with the Milwaukee Brewers last year, the 31-year-old Venezuelan slugger has disappointed with the Fish and is currently batting .230/.267/.316 with only seven home runs, 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and four stolen bases in 339 at-bats.

Mon Sep 26 202218:23Avisail Garcia To Begin Rehab Assignment Monday
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) and right-hander Tommy Nance (groin) will start a minor league rehab assignment on Monday with Triple-A Jacksonville. As long as Garcia doesn't suffer any setbacks in the minors, he should be able to rejoin the Fish for the final few days of the 2022 regular season. The 31-year-old has been on the shelf for the last two weeks with a left hamstring strain, but he's getting closer to returning to the starting lineup. Garcia has been a disappointment in his first year in Miami with a .230/.267/.316 slash line, seven home runs, 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and four stolen bases in 93 games after hitting a career-high 29 long balls last year for the Milwaukee Brewers.

Tue Sep 13 202216:12Avisail Garcia Heads To Injured List
The Miami Marlins placed outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and called up infield prospect Jordan Groshans from Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move. With time running out in the regular season, there's a good chance we won't see Garcia again in 2022. He's hit a disappointing .230/.267/.316 with seven home runs, 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and four stolen bases in 359 plate appearances over 93 games in his first year in Miami after clubbing a career-high 29 home runs and driving in 86 in 2021 with the Milwaukee Brewers. With the 31-year-old veteran on the shelf, Jerar Encarnacion and Bryan De La Cruz will battle for more playing time in the outfield.

Mon Sep 12 202212:47Avisail Garcia Remains Out For Game 1 Monday
Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup on Monday for the first game of a doubleheader against the Texas Rangers. Garcia is dealing with a hamstring injury that previously put him on the injured list for a month, and he aggravated the injury on Saturday. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day with left hamstring discomfort, but if he doesn't return to the lineup soon, he might have to be shut down for the rest of the season. Jerar Encarnacion is starting in right field and hitting eighth, while Garrett Cooper is serving as the designated hitter and batting third for Game 1 on Monday against Rangers right-hander Glenn Otto.
