The Diamondbacks announced Hans Crouse Jersey a series of roster moves this afternoon, headlined by the club selecting the contract of catcher . Right-hander was placed on the 15-day injured list to make room for Garcia on the active roster, while the transfer of right-hander to the 60-day IL following yesterdays news that the veteran is set to cleared a 40-man roster spot for Garcia. In addition, Arizona appointed righty to the roster as their 27th-man for todays doubleheader. Garcia, 32, was a second-round pick by the Giants back in 2014 but didnt ultimately make his big league debut until the 2018 season. Garcia came up to the majors in August of that year to help back up after underwent season-ending hip surgery. He got time in both behind the plate and at first base that year, slashing .286/.302/.492 acro s 19 games in his first cup of coffee with the big league club, though that solid 117 wRC+ came in a sample of just 65 plate appearances. Still, Garcias work in that first taste of the majors was enough to convince the Giants to continue rostering him for the 2019 campaign. Unfortunately, his performance took a nose dive in that second stint as a big leaguer. He ultimately hit just .143/.217/.310 in 46 trips to the plate for the Giants that year. Despite that lackluster performance, Garcia was still in line to make the Giants 2020 Opening Day roster as the primary backup to Posey. Thats not how things worked out, however, as an offseason hip injury combined with the shortened 60-game campaign left Garcia sidelined for the whole year. The Giants ultimately cut the catcher loose following the 2020 season and designated him for a signment. He was claimed off waivers by the Rangers and then included in the swap that sent to Dallas and to Oakland prior to the 2021 campaign. Garcias largest contributions in the majors came during the next two seasons. He hit .205/.239/.318 (56 wRC+) in 32 games with the As in 2021, but was ultimately cut from the teams roster and signed with the Reds on a minor league deal. In Cincinnati, Garcia appeared in a career-high 47 games but hit just .213/.248/.259 with a wRC+ of 37 before getting claimed by the Orioles following the 2022 season. He bounced between the Orioles and Phillies organizations over the past two years but made just three appearances in the majors in that time before signing with Arizona on a minor league deal this past winter. Now, hes back in the majors as a depth option behind the plate with a doubleheader scheduled today and primary catcher day-to-day following a hand injury he suffered in yesterdays game. Making room for Garcia on the active roster is Mena, who is being shelved with a right shoulder strain. The right-hander has long been regarded as a talented but raw pitching prospect and was acquired from the White Sox in exchange for outfielder prior to the 2024 season. Mena made his big league debut last year and surrendered four runs acro s three innings in his lone appearance, but this year hes looked quite good with 5 2/3 scorele s innings of work and a 35% strikeout rate in a multi-inning relief role. Unfortunately, hell now need to wait to heal up to build on that succe s. For today, Menas spot in the bullpen will be offered to Montes De Oca, who has not yet appeared in a big league game but has a 4.07 ERA in 24 1/3 innings of work at Triple-A this year.
