Arm: RH. INF-90 mph. Throws show carry across the diamond and he can throw accurately from different arm angles and slots. Quick, clean mechanics complement his athleticism and overall versatility in the infield.
Defense: Athletic mover with good body control and lateral range. Quick hands and feet allow him to work around and through the baseball efficiently. Actions are controlled, balanced, and repeatable, reflecting plus defensive ability.

5/16/25
One of the top 2028s in the state, Garcia continues to shine as a two way threat with advanced instincts and athletic ability well beyond his years. The freshman showed off his all-around impact in a dominant performance, going 3-4 with 2 RBIs at the plate and throwing a complete game shutout to force a decisive game two for Hamilton. Offensively, Garcia hits from a short, compact setup and gets the barrel to the ball quickly with fast hands and a direct path. He’s aggressive early in counts and plays the game with an edge. He is confident and quick out of the box and always looking to make something happen. On the mound, he may not have had swing and miss stuff on this outing, but his ability to pitch to contact and trust his defense was mature beyond his age. Working from a clean, repeatable 3/4 arm slot, Garcia pounded the zone with a fastball sitting 85–86 and touching 89. The slider showed flashes of bite at 75–76, though it was inconsistent, and the changeup sat 79–80 with some feel. Despite not recording a strikeout, he limited Hamilton’s opponent to just two hits across seven scoreless frames. There’s still plenty of growth ahead, both physically and in terms of polish, but Garcia plays with grit, feel, and confidence. Long term, the skill set leans more toward a middle infield profile, but his two way upside makes him one of the more exciting young players in Arizona.
