Garcia Mitchell Trubisky Jerseys , 30, was terrific in 2015, posting a 10-6 record with a sterling 2.43 ERA and 1.05 WHIP. Though he regre sed last season 10-13 with a 4.67 ERA Garcia, when healthy,can be a quality mid-rotation starter for the quickly improving Braves, who earlier this offseason signed veteran free agents Bartolo Colon and R.A. Dickey.
Atlanta is rumored to be interested in White Sox ace Chris Sale as well. While this deal doesn't rule Anthony Miller Jerseys out a move for Sale, it certainly hurt their chances after losing three trade-worthy prospects.
