Jaime Garcia is making a strong bid for a spot in the St. Louis Cardinals' rotation. Garcia threw four crisp innings, David Freese and Joe Mather hit their first spring homers and a Cardinals split-squad beat the Houston Astros 6-4 on Monday. Garcia, who missed last season after undergoing reconstructive left elbow surgery, allowed one run and two hits in relief of Kyle Lohse. He has yielded two runs while striking out 15 in 12 2/3 innings over four outings this spring. "My arm feels awesome," he said. "It feels better than it has ever felt. I did everything I could in the offseason. Finally now I feel like everything is paying off. It's feeling good and everything is going the way it's supposed to go." Garcia is competing with non-roster invitee Rich Hill and Kyle McClellan for the final spot in the rotation behind Chris Carpenter, Adam Wainwright, Lohse and Brad Penny. →红雀这个春训的大惊奇Jaime Garcia持续以优异的表现震惊所有人，而且几乎宣告他 拿下红雀开季的第五号先发位置。因伤缺阵许久的Jaime Garcia今天四局的投球中， 仅仅被敲两支安打掉了一分，总计这个春训12.2局的投球只掉两分并送出15K。 C:这只被一堆专家看好变成今年的大黑马，不知道来真的假的 ps:借转自p2 v大fb板 --
