Early life


García was born and grew up in Bonao, Dominican Republic. He has two older brothers. His father, a youth baseball coach, also coached García as a youngster. His mother, a doctor, set aside her career to raise their family.[1]


Career


García signed with the New York Yankees in July 2015 for a $200,000 signing bonus. Though he previously played baseball as an infielder and an outfielder, the Yankees had him become a pitcher due to his throwing arm strength.[1] In 2018, García pitched for the Charleston RiverDogs of the Class A South Atlantic League and the Tampa Tarpons of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League. He made his final start of the 2018 season with the Trenton Thunder of the Class AA Eastern League.[2][3]

García returned to Tampa in 2019, and was promoted to Trenton after making four starts.[4][5] In July he was selected to play in the All-Star Futures Game.[6] After the game, he was promoted to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders of the Class AAA International League.[7][8][9] Following the 2019 season, the Yankees added García to their 40-man roster to protect him from becoming eligible in the Rule 5 draft.[10] García was named minor league pitcher of the year in the Yankees organization in 2019.[11]

The Yankees sent García to their alternate training site to begin the 2020 season.[12] He made his major league debut for the Yankees on August 30.[13] He pitched six innings on 75 pitches, allowing four singles, one unearned run, no walks, and had six strikeouts in a no-decision.[14][15] He had a 3–2 record with a 4.98 ERA in six starts during the 2020 season, and was an opener for Game 2 of the 2020 American League Division Series.[16] Only going one and half inning allowing a hit before being pulled for J. A. Happ.
