Rangers keep slumping slugger Garcia on bench
Briefly

Adolis García, the Texas Rangers' player struggling at the plate with a .155 batting average over the past 20 games, has been sidelined to focus on making mechanical adjustments. President of baseball operations, Chris Young, emphasized the need for García to commit to these changes to improve performance, while García expressed the importance of taking a mental reset. The impending return of Evan Carter adds competition for outfield spots, making it crucial for García to step up his game moving forward.
"We need him to kind of commit to some of these changes that we think will get him back to the '23 version of himself and help him be the player that we know he can be."
"It's about the mental reset and coming back with more energy," García told reporters Saturday.
"It's going to be performance-driven at this point," Young said.
García is hitting .155 in the past 20 games with 25 strikeouts. He is hitting .208 overall, with seven homers and a team-high 27 RBIs for a Rangers club that has struggled offensively.
