New York Yankees: Did Deivi Garcia damage his chances at a place in the Yankees rotation?

The New York Yankee’s prospect Deivi Garcia is confident. Still, his performance in yesterday’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies did not spell good for him getting that coveted fifth spot in the Yankees rotation. Garcia made his spring training debut yesterday, and it didn’t go well; he gave up two runs in two innings of work.

In the first, García was just one strike away from retiring the side when center fielder Scott Kingery jumped on a pitch that Garcia left up in the zone, and Kingery made him pay for it slamming a big home run.
