Garcia went 0-for-2 Wednesday against the Astros, but he walked twice, scored two runs, and stole a base as the team's leadoff hitter.

He got the start at shortstop with regular Alexei Ramirez receiving the day off. Ramirez rarely sits, but Garcia could be a cheap source of steals down the stretch if he makes a couple starts per week in the middle infield in addition to serving as a late-inning pinch runner.
