His ability to contribute across multiple categories, including 22 stolen bases and 56 runs scored, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups.

His performance this year has been solid, maintaining a .278 average with respectable power numbers, including 68 RBI. Garcia's blend of power and speed (21 stolen bases) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that value middle infielders who can contribute across multiple categories. His consistent playing time and production should keep him in the mix as a starting option in most fantasy formats.

His season batting average remains solid at .281, and with 133 hits, including 16 homers, he continues to be a reliable source of offense. While his performance in this particular game might not jump off the page for fantasy managers, his consistent hitting and ability to score runs keep him as a valuable asset in most fantasy lineups, especially in deeper leagues.
