Garcia had a tough year but it's a cool story how he found his way back to baseball. He was working in a salon in NJ I believe and the phils heard about him and how hard he could throw so they sent a scout to see him and supposedly he called his boss right there and said you need to get down here. Something to that effect, it's been several years, really enjoyed watching him in AAA for the IronPigs.

That's cool and all, but I still hate this trade. Alvarez was arguably our best reliever last season.
