Cardinals | SP Jaime Garcia shuts down Atlanta

St. Louis Cardinals SP Jaime Garcia 7 shutout innings against the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday.  He gave up just 4 hits and 1 walk, while striking out 5.

Our Instinct:  Yet another young player who will be a candidate for rookie of the year.  Garcia has faced the Brewers, Mets, Giants, and Braves this season and has given up just 3 earned runs against some pretty damn good lineups.  He’s 2-1 with a silly 1.04 era.  Garcia has struck out 17 while walking 9 in 26 innings on the season.  He’s a terrific back end of the rotation option and is looking more and more like a middle of the rotation option.
