Scouting Report: Avisaíl García
Chicago Cubs | RF
Overall
Summary
Gabriel Arias, Cleveland Guardians shortstop, suffered a moderate left hamstring strain on April 6, 2026, while running to second base after hitting a double against Kansas City. Initially given a 4-8 week recovery timeline, manager Stephen Vogt announced on May 8 that Arias experienced a setback in his rehabilitation process and will miss significantly longer than originally expected, likely not returning until June at the earliest. Arias had been showing offensive improvement with 5 hits (including 1 double and 2 home runs) in his last 5 games with 4 RBI before the injury. His 87 wRC+ indicates below-average offensive production for the season prior to injury.
Strengths
- Was showing offensive improvement before injury with recent hot streak
- Strong defensive player at shortstop
