Garcia said, “I was aware of the fact that scouts of different teams watch the exhibition games when we play all around the world”. He added, “I thought that I have the opportunity to perform well in front of them to get a chance to play in major-league”.
He got a chance to play in the minor-league in the Chicago Cubs color. He performed exceptionally well in the minor-league matches. Alex Suarez, Cubs director of international player development, said, “He is performing exceptionally well and he is exceeding everybody’s expectations”. He added, “He is a kind of player who can make adjustments as quickly as possible”.
