+ SO MIF Jedvier Garcia (Riverside University, WI) is a toolsy prospect to know from the scout day. Garcia started off his day by cruising to a 6.55 in the laser-timed 60, and his athleticism plays on the infield too; boasting athletic actions with steady hands and easy range to both sides of his glove. His arm is plenty strong, and it can play on the move and from multiple angles (T88 mph). The right-handed hitter worked on the barrel throughout his round of BP, working to stay on top of the baseball while using the whole field, reaching up to 97 mph for his max EV with a max distance of 342’. Last season, Garcia turned in a .281 batting average in 114 at-bats, also notching 10 doubles, four home runs and eight stolen bases.
+ FR MIF Jedvier Garcia (Milwaukee Riverside, 2023, WI) is another highly athletic middle-infield prospect that showed well from Tuesday’s scout day. To start the day Garcia ran the fastest recorded 60 of the day, registering a run time of 6.50. At the plate, Garcia took a consistent round of BP driving the baseball up the middle-of-the-field and he recorded a max exit velocity of 93.1 mph. During his defensive workout, Garcia proved to be an athletic moving middle infield prospect with a strong arm that was up to 85 mph across the diamond.
Garcia is built at a lean 5-foot-10, 150-pounds and he strung together a quality overall performance. To start his day, Garcia ran a 6.82 in the 60-yard dash which was the best of the entire event. He then followed this up with a strong showing during BP in which he used a short, direct swing to line the ball to the entire field and recorded a max EV of 94.1 mph and averaged 87.4. Defensively, Garcia’s athleticism transfers over to the infield as his active feet allow him to work around the ball and he pairs it with an arm that topped at 79 mph on his throws to first. Overall, Garcia is a raw prospect but he already has some tools that allowed him to stand out to our scouts on Saturday.
