Garcia signed a two-year, $14 million contract with the Rangers on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The two sides had been scheduled for an arbitration hearing Thursday, but that will no longer be necessary. Heyman says Garcia can push his total earnings over the two years to $20.25 million if he reaches incentives. The outfielder will be under team control for one additional year in 2026, as well, before reaching free agency. Garcia slashed .245/.328/.508 with 39 home runs in 2023 and added an additional eight long balls during the postseason.
