Recently traded former Red Sox prospect is asserting himself in Pirates’ outfield mix

Former Boston Red Sox outfield prospect Jhostynxon "The Password" Garcia became a fan favorite in Boston, and it sounds like he's already doing similar things as a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates organization.

Pirates beat writer Noah Hiles raved about Garcia during a recent appearance on the "Bucco Territory" podcast, calling The Password "big-league ready" and suggesting that Garcia might earn a spot on the MLB roster.

As of February 27, Garcia was 5-for-11 in spring training with four runs, two RBI, and three stolen bases. He's clearly made an impact at the plate through five spring games in a Pirates uniform.
