Since they selected Garcia at age 17 out of Puerto Rico in 2009, the Cardinals have taken their time with his development. But in 2015, Garcia showed he was ready to speed things up. The 27th-ranked St. Louis prospect batted .283 with 13 homers and 64 RBIs while walking a career-high 51 times for Double-A Springfield and Triple-A Memphis. Garcia showed off his power when he first got to big league camp, with seven of his eight hits going for extra bases and six RBIs. The 24-year-old spent 18 games with the Redbirds last season and will begin the 2016 campaign there.
