Jaime Garcia

Yankees' Jaime Garcia scratched from Saturday start

New York Yankees pitcher Jaime Garcia has been scratched from Saturday's start against the Toronto Blue Jays.

What It Means:

According to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch, CC Sabathia will get the start in his place. There's been no report of injury so this is clearly a strategic move as the Yankees continue to battle for the AL East title.

Over his last 5 starts, Garcia is 0-2 with a 4.12 FIP and 4.15 walks per 9 innings. He's just 5-10 on the year while accounting for a 4.24 FIP and 2.36 nERD across 3 teams.
