Overview

  • Multiple outlets report Boston will call up No. 3 prospect Jhostynxon Garcia, with beat writers noting he cleared his Triple-A locker and received teammate congratulations.
  • MLB.com reporting cited by The Sporting News says Garcia is set to join the club in New York for the series opener against the Yankees on Thursday night.
  • Reports link the move to Wilyer Abreu’s right calf injury, with an IL stint expected plus related transactions including recalls of David Hamilton and Richard Fitts and a DFA for Abraham Toro.
  • Garcia, 22, posted a .303/.367/.564 line with 17 home runs and a .932 OPS over 66 games at Triple-A Worcester after a May promotion from Double-A Portland.
  • Ranked top three in the organization and inside MLB Pipeline’s top 100, the right-handed outfielder’s arrival adds competition to a crowded mix that local analysis says could reshape outfield and DH at-bats.
