The Texas Rangers have experienced high peaks and low valleys this season

Texas Rangers Peak: Adolis Garcia gets called up

There hasn’t been a more clutch player in baseball since “El Bombi” was called up on April 13. Change my mind.

Summoned to take the injured Ronald Guzman’s spot on the roster during the Rays series, Garcia has been a jolt of energy to this team. providing electrifying late-game hits and highlight reel catches in the outfield.

Garcia’s breakout is an unlikely one, especially given his limited track record before being called up to the roster this season and his more advanced age (he’s a 28-year-old rookie).

On the season, “El Bombi” is hitting .287/.329./.888 in 136 at-bats with 11 home runs and 30 runs batted in.

Nothing should elate a fanbase more than seeing results from a minor-league player. And with the way Garcia is producing, he could very well find himself as this year’s AL Rookie of Year, as well as a potential franchise cornerstone.
