Running at 90 percent Royals manager Matt Quatraro said Monday that Garcia has had "no recurrence of symptoms" related to his strained left hamstring and is running at 90 percent speed, Joel Penfield of...

Impact In addition to running, Garcia is also taking part in fielding drills and hitting in the batting cage, according to Quatraro. Currently in the midst of his second stint on the injured list of the season, Garcia looks on track to return to action at some point later this month, despite the 64-80 Royals having little at stake. After a breakout 2025 campaign, Garcia's performance has taken a step back this season, with the 26-year-old producing a .269/.324/.385 slash line to go with three home runs, five steals, 32 RBI and 34 runs in 73 games before he landed on the shelf Aug. 21.

Progressing in rehab Garcia (hamstring) is running at 80 percent while participating in baseball activities, per MLB.com.

Impact Garcia hit the injured list Aug. 21 due to a left hamstring strain just four games after returning from a muscle strain in his left hand. The third baseman's progress in rehab is a positive sign and keeps a return before the end of the regular season on the table, though the Royals may ultimately err on the side of caution with the team far from playoff contention. In 73 games, Garcia is slashing .269/.324/.385 with three homers, 32 RBI, 34 runs and five stolen bases.

Officially sent to injured list The Royals placed Garcia on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left hamstring strain.

Impact After missing nearly two months with a hand injury, Garcia played four games with Kansas City this week only to injure his hamstring running the bases Thursday against the Athletics. It's shaping up as somewhat of a lost season for the 26-year-old, who has appeared in just 73 of 129 games and will miss several more. Nick Loftin figures to get most of the starts at third base for the Royals while Garcia is out.

Impact Garcia suffered the injury while rounding third base in the first inning and came out of the game immediately afterward. The 26-year-old had been playing in just his fourth game since returning from a nearly two-month stay on the IL caused by a hand injury but is now set to go back on the shelf for at least the remainder of August. Nick Loftin will likely resume serving as Kansas City's primary third baseman.

Witt homers as the Royals earn their fifth straight win with a four-game sweep of the Athletics

Suffers hamstring injury Garcia was removed from Thursday's game against the Athletics after the first inning with a left hamstring injury, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Garcia doubled in his first plate appearance in the bottom of the first inning, but he later pulled up after rounding third base, grabbed at his hamstring and was tagged out on a fielder's choice. The 26-year-old just returned earlier this week from a nearly two-month absence with a hand injury, and it looks like he could be headed back to the injured list.

Triple and RBI in win Garcia went 2-for-5 with an RBI, run, and a triple in Wednesday's 9-7 win against the Athletics.

Impact Garcia got both of his hits in the eighth inning where he was the first run after his triple, and then got the final RBI to make the score 9-5. After dealing with a hand injury since June 22, Garcia has bounced back this series going 5-for-14 with two RBI. The 26-year-old is batting .266 on the season with three home runs, 32 RBI, 34 runs scored, and five stolen bases in just 72 games played.
