The 22-year-old Garcia has been hot since returning from a hamstring injury, going 5-for-11 with two home runs in his last three games. He's now slashing .286/.316/.486 through 35 at-bats to start the year.

Arraez (finger) is hitting third and playing second base Sunday against the Diamondbacks, Joe Frisaro of ManOnSecondBaseball.com reports.
