Rehab assignment coming soon Royals manager Matt Quatraro said that Garcia (hand) could begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Omaha as soon as Wednesday, Pete Grathoff of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Garcia was scheduled to take part in fielding drills Sunday, and if the workout goes well, he'll be cleared to move on to the final step in the recovery process for a strained left hand, which has kept him on the injured list since June 23. Nick Loftin has been serving as the Royals' primary third baseman in recent weeks, but he'll likely be ticketed for a utility role once Garcia completes his rehab assignment and is ready for activation.

Receives cortisone injection Garcia (hand) received a cortisone injection Tuesday and will be shut down for around five days before ramping up baseball activity, MLB.com reports.

Impact Garcia has been on the injured list since June 22 due to a muscle strain in his left hand and was pulled off his rehab assignment after just one appearance with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on July 28 due to renewed discomfort. After meeting with a hand specialist Tuesday, the 26-year-old received a cortisone injection and was prescribed brief rest, a generally positive sign that his setback isn't overly concerning or season-ending. A more formal timeline is likely to emerge once Garcia resumes baseball activities. Before hitting the shelf, he slashed .261/.320/.373 with three homers, 30 RBI, 32 runs and five stolen bases across 69 games.

Seeing hand specialist Garcia (hand) is scheduled to see a hand specialist next week, Jaylon T. Thompson of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Garcia has been battling through a left hand muscle strain that caused him to go on the 10-day injured list in late June. He was cleared to embark on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday, but he was pulled from that assignment after feeling renewed pain in his left hand. Garcia's recovery timeline should become more clear once he is evaluated by a specialist next week.

Hand discomfort returns Garcia felt renewed pain in his left hand while playing in a rehab game at Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Impact Tuesday marked Garcia's return to game action after landing on the injured list in late June with a strained muscle in his left hand. He was originally slated to play another game Wednesday, but he'll instead return to Kansas City for further evaluation. An updated timeline for his return could emerge after the team takes a closer look at him.

Hitless in first rehab game Garcia (hand) went 0-for-3 with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Tuesday.

Impact Garcia logged five innings at third base but went hitless to begin his rehab assignment from a muscle strain in his left hand that has kept him sidelined since June 22. The 26-year-old likely won't need an extended rehab assignment before rejoining the big-league club, though it's unclear how many minor-league games he'll require before being activated from the injured list. Garcia is slated to serve as the designated hitter for Wednesday's contest, per Anne Rogers of MLB.com. He's slashing .261/.320/.373 with three homers, 30 RBI, 32 runs and five stolen bases across 69 games.

Kicking off rehab Tuesday Garcia (hand) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Tuesday.

Impact Garcia is finally ready to test things out in a game setting after missing more than a month of action with a nagging muscle strain in his left hand. The third baseman shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before rejoining the Royals' active roster. Nick Loftin has been serving as Kansas City's primary option at the hot corner since Garcia went down.
