Arkansas Travelers left-handed pitcher Brandyn Garcia was named Texas League Pitcher of the Week for July 1-7 it was announced today by Minor League Baseball. Garcia struck out eight over five no-hit, shutout innings last Monday in his lone appearance of the week. It was the Double-A debut for the left-hander. Facing the team with the league’s best record, Garcia carried over his success from the High-A level where he was Northwest League Pitcher of the Month for June.
With Everett, Garcia was 6-0 with a 1.84 ERA in 68.1 innings over 14 games (12 starts) with 85 strikeouts and 26 walks. The 24-year old lefty is in his first full professional season. He was the Mariners’ 11th round draft selection in 2023 out of Texas A&M.
He is the third Traveler to win a Texas League weekly award in 2024 joining Harry Ford and Hogan Windish. It is his first career minor league weekly award.
