As I stated yesterday..it would be a good move to bring in Freddy Garcia. The Pettitte negotiations aren’t going anywhere, and Garcia could turn out to be some sort of suprise this season. The Yankees off-season has been terrific, and adding Garcia would make it even better. I know some people will say…why? Freddy was highly thought of from 2001-2006. (he pitched 200IP+ in all of those seasons) He hasn’t been healthy the past two seasons, but you never know when you might strike lightning in a bottle. He could add more depth to the Yankees rotation.
From Peter Abraham:
Andrew Marchand of ESPN Radio reported today that Freddy Garcia is considering offers from the Mets, Yankees, Rangers and White Sox and could sign by the end of next week.
I would imagine it would be a minor-league contract.
Garcia rehabbed with the Tigers last season and got in three games. He hasn’t been a regular starter since 2006.
Garcia could be worth a shot. If the Yankees make a push and sign him, it could be another sign they’re moving on from Andy Pettitte.
