After a disappointing 2024 campaign, Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia revamped his swing and is gunning for 50 home runs and 100 RBI in 2025. Even during a down year, Garcia had 25 home runs, 85 RBI and 11 stolen bases, but his .224 average and .684 OPS were career-lows. The 31-year-old has worked to remove an early loop at the top of his swing to give him a "quieter" swing, according to manager Bruce Bochy. "Not a lot of movement. Not a lot of length -- with his stride or with the swing itself." He's more focused now on making loud contact, as opposed to trying to lift the ball. A knee injury bothered Garcia throughout last season, which may have impacted his results at the plate. The good news is that Garcia appears to be healthy this spring and is moving around much better. Better health will go a long way for him in 2025, and Garcia's floor is pretty high after averaging 31 homers in his four full seasons in Texas.

According to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (knee) had a normal offseason following his eight weeks of rehab. Garcia dealt with a left patella tendon strain during the 2024 season. Across 154 games, the 31-year-old posted a .224/.284/.400 line with 27 doubles, 25 home runs, and 11 stolen bases. He struggled at the plate as he held a hefty 27.8 percent strikeout rate. President of Baseball Operations Chris Young noted that he does not believe Garcia's injury limited him during the 2024 season but that he is in a "better place" entering the 2025 season. The slugger said, "I feel better prepared. I'm ready to go." Garcia enjoyed a career year in 2023 as he held a .245/.328/.508 slash line with 39 home runs. While he carries lower value in points leagues, given his high strikeout rate, he has elite power upside.

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (knee) has resumed running this offseason and is expected to be ready to go for the start of spring training in mid-February, barring any setbacks. Garcia didn't require surgery on his left knee, but his 2024 campaign ended early due to a sprained patellar tendon. The 31-year-old Cuban outfielder made his second All-Star team in 2023 and then led the Rangers to their first-ever World Series title by setting career-highs in home runs (39), RBI (107) and runs scored (108) in 148 regular-season games. Garcia took a big step back in 2024, slashing .224/.284/.400 with a below-average .684 OPS, 25 homers, 85 RBI, 11 steals, 68 runs scored and 177 strikeouts in 637 plate appearances over 154 games played. It's good news that he should be fully recovered from his knee injury heading into the 2025 season as he looks to bounce back as a high-end power bat for fantasy managers.

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (knee) has a sprained left patellar tendon and will rehab for eight weeks before starting his offseason workouts. Despite dealing with a knee injury for the final few weeks of the 2024 regular season, Garcia will not need surgery for his knee injury and should be good to go for the start of spring training next February, barring a setback with his knee this offseason. After helping the Rangers win their first-ever World Series title last fall, the 31-year-old Cuban slugger regressed in 2024, slashing .224/.284/.400 with a below-average .684 OPS, 25 home runs, 85 RBI, 11 stolen bases and 68 runs scored in 154 games. It was a disappointment after he made his second All-Star appearance in 2023 by hitting a career-high 39 home runs and driving in a career-high 107 runs in 148 regular-season games. If Garcia can put his knee injury in the rearview mirror to start next season, he'll be hoping to bounce back as a more consistent power bat.

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (knee) is undergoing an MRI exam on his left knee, and the Rangers are hopeful he can avoid offseason surgery. A year after leading the Rangers to their first-ever World Series, Adolis is out of the postseason altogether and is now managing a knee ailment heading into the offseason. If the 31-year-old veteran were to go under the knife, it's unknown if it would affect his availability for the start of spring training in February or the beginning of the 2025 regular season. Garcia suffered his knee injury in the final week of the regular season. The two-time All-Star wasn't quite as impressive in 2024 in his fifth year in Texas, slashing .224/.284/.400 with a below-average .684 OPS. After setting career-highs in home runs (39) and RBI (107) in 2023, Garcia produced 25 home runs, 85 RBI and 11 stolen bases in 154 games for the Rangers. He'll be hoping to bounce back in 2025.
