Umm... I really hope this isn't "plan B".
The 35-year-old went 12-6 with a 4.64 ERA last year with the White Sox. And no, that isn't terrible, but I really don't see where a pitcher like Garcia fits. At least not on the Major League roster.
As of right now the rotation is CC, Hughes, Burnett, Nova and I guess Mitre. Signing Garcia and slotting him into the 4 or 5 spot doesn't help this team. Unless they can resign Petttitte, I feel they're going to need to get a quality arm (much easier said than done), push Nova to the no. 5 spot and Mitre into the pen. At least if they want to be successful they do.
