The Samsung Lions of the Korea Baseball Organization have announced the signing of right-hander Gerson Garabito, who was recently released by the Texas Rangers. Garabito struggled with a combined 5.77 ERA over two seasons with Texas and faced even greater challenges with an 8.53 ERA at Triple-A this year. His signing comes as the Lions also deal with the injury loss of pitcher Denyi Reyes, who had performed decently before a foot injury ended his season. Reyes is now a free agent looking for opportunities to return to affiliated baseball.
The Samsung Lions have signed right-hander Gerson Garabito, previously released by Texas, amid Denyi Reyes's injury, marking a shift in the team's pitching roster.
Garabito's previous struggles with an ERA of 5.77 in Texas and 8.53 at Triple-A Round Rock raise doubts about his potential impact in KBO.
Denyi Reyes ends his time in Korea due to a foot injury, having pitched well before the setback; he seeks a return to affiliated baseball.
While Garabito had a better ERA last season in Triple-A, his current performance makes his signing a risk for the Lions.
