  • SF Giants Press Clips Monday, August 27, 2018
    SF Giants Press Clips Monday, August 27, 2018 San Francisco Chronicle Giants’ Bochy: Rookie Aramis Garcia ‘ready to catch here’ Henry Schulman The Giants’ tradition of shifting coaches and executives to new responsibilities rather than firing them does pay dividends. One example is former first-base coach Bill Hayes, whom they retained as a minor-league catching instructor. Hayes worked extensively with Aramis Garcia this season, helping the 25-year-old improve his defense, the weaker part of his game early in his development. That helped Garcia get to the majors for the first time Sunday to take Buster Posey’s roster spot. “I credit a lot of the defense to Bill Hayes,” Garcia said. “Defensively, this is the best I’ve caught in my career, and that gives me a lot of confidence.” Manager Bruce Bochy said Giants evaluators have reported improvement in Garcia’s ball blocking, receiving and throwing. “He’s ready to catch here,” Bochy said. “His hitting is a work in progress.” Garcia, the club’s second-round draft pick in 2014, batted .233 with 11 homers in 80 games for Double-A Richmond, Va., where he spent most of the season. In 10 Triple-A games, he hit .237 with one extra-base hit in 38 at-bats. Do not expect to see much of Garcia on the field in the short term. His matriculation to the majors will involve a lot of discussions with new starter Nick Hundley and lessons on how the catchers, pitchers and coaches go over hitters before a game. Bochy will have Garcia sit alongside bullpen catcher Eli Whiteside during games to analyze what they are seeing.
