The platooning of Robel Garcia and Abraham Toro has been heavily shifted to the shoulders of Toro in recent weeks. With Alex Bregman and Aledmys Diaz on the injured list, the two utility men were tasked a new workload, but Garcia has lacked in offensive production.
After three consecutive starts in Chicago, Toro got the day off on Monday, although accounting for two of the team’s last four hits and the sole run in their past two games. The Houston Astros have seen an up and down month from Toro, but with an already shortened bench, Garcia isn’t proving much.
