He’s the owner of the fourth-lowest OPS in the NL and is a liability in the field. But Adonis Garcia will continue to man the hot corner because, well, who’s going to replace him?
“The experience I’ve had with (Garcia), I just want to keep running the guy out there and hopefully he starts doing what we think he can do,” Snitker said.
Garcia’s surprising second half in 2016 should’ve been viewed as an outlier. He rarely walks and doesn’t have enough power to make him worth keeping around. More telling to me was the fact that a guy who was made his big league debut at 30 years old had to be demoted to the minors the following season because of his attitude.
