Track Record: Garcia played five seasons in Cuba's Serie Nacional and won the league's MVP award in 2016. The Cardinals gave him $2.5 million after he defected, capping a push to sign talent from the island nation. A tooled-up athlete with an uber-aggressive approach, Garcia spent just under two seasons in the upper minors before the Cardinals called him up last August.

Scouting Report: Few position players in the Cardinals' system can match Garcia's tools. He has plus raw power, is a plus runner, has a cannon arm from right field that is a borderline 80 tool and is a plus defender in right field. What hampers Garcia is a poor approach. He's a wild swinger with little plate discipline, resulting in gobs of strikeouts. He has stretches where he puts an approach together, waits for a fastball and stays behind the ball, but he has yet to show he can maintain it for any extended period of time.

The Future: Garcia's speed, defense and power have already gotten him to the big leagues. Whether he can improve his approach will determine if he becomes more than a reserve.
