Garza, 31, was acquired from the Giants over the weekend in exchange for cash considerations.
He has a 5.74 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in 47 innings over 38 appearances (with all but one coming in relief) in parts of two big league seasons with the Guardians (2021) and Red Sox (2023).
In 17.2 innings this season for the Giants’ Triple-A affiliate, Garza had a 6.11 ERA and 1.47 WHIP.
Garza has a 4.59 ERA in 474.0 innings spanning nine minor league seasons.
