Arizona Diamondbacks AAA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Going after Mariners pitching prospects has its merits, given their stellar developmental track record and spacious home park, and Garcia is arguably Seattle's most relevant pitching prospect for 2025. The 6-foot-4 southpaw logged a 2.83 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB in 47.2 innings across 13 starts for Double-A Arkansas in 2024. Garcia has a plus fastball and a plus slider, but his changeup is a distant third pitch and his command is iffy, as he walked 10.1 percent of batters at Double-A as a 24-year-old. Garcia was lights out earlier in the year against younger hitters at High-A, logging a 1.84 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 85 strikeouts and a 59.5 percent groundball rate in 68.1 innings. It would help for Garcia to improve his third pitch and/or his strike throwing, but his handedness and top two pitches might be enough for him to make it as a starter as is. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Mariners in July of 2025. Traded to the Diamondbacks in July of 2025.
Headed to Arizona
PArizona Diamondbacks  AAA
July 24, 2025
The Mariners traded Garcia and Ashton Izzi to the Diamondbacks on Thursday in exchange for Josh Naylor, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis
The Diamondbacks are expected to prioritize pitching while they sell their pieces at the deadline, and they'll bolster their bullpen depth by picking up Garcia. The 25-year-old southpaw made his MLB debut Monday against the Brewers and has given up one run in two innings since then. He was optioned back to Triple-A by Seattle shortly before being traded, though it's unclear if he'll return to the bigs upon joining his new organization. Garcia had been a starter prior to this season, and he has a couple plus pitches in his fastball and slider, so it's possible Arizona will look to stretch him back out at some point.
