Idle Friday
Garcia is absent from Friday's lineup against the Red Sox.
Analisi
With Boston sending out southpaw Patrick Sandoval, the left-handed-hitting Garcia will have the night off Friday. Paul Goldschmidt will lead off and man first base while Ben Rice bats second and acts as the designated hitter for the Yankees.

Slugs another homer Wednesday
Garcia went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and two additional runs in a 9-3 victory versus Houston on Wednesday.
Analisi
Garcia put the finishing touches on an emphatic New York win with his two-run blast to right field in the eighth inning. It was the infielder's second straight game with a long ball, and he's now gone deep four times across his past six contests. Garcia has slashed an incredible .524/.583/1.143 during that span, so he's as hot as any player in baseball at the moment. He's up to 28 homers and 87 runs batted in on the campaign, with the RBI mark good for seventh-most in the majors.

Analisi

Additionally, the slugging first baseman has racked up at least three hits on three occasions during that period. Over 79 plate appearances since being traded the Yankees at the deadline, Garcia is slashing .306/.354/.569 with five long balls, four doubles, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored.

Since being acquired by the Yankees from the Nationals in early August, Garcia has an .860 OPS with four home runs and nine RBI over 74 plate appearances.
