According to Reddit, Boldenone undecylenate/undecanoate is a highly anabolic and moderately androgenic steroid. Its primary use is in veterinary medicine most commonly with horses, but has become a favorite of strength athletes and bodybuilders.
Garcia, 22, went 12-4 with a 2.68 ERA last season with Advanced 'A' Clearwater, but started the 2017 campign on the Double-A Reading disabled list after allowing seven runs in just 4.2 innings in three games with the Phillies in Spring Training. His fastball can reach 95 and also throws a plus curveball to go along with a slider and a changeup.
Garcia is on the 40-man roster, but he'll be placed on the restricted list, opening up a spot on the 40-man that the Phillies can use. MLB Pipeline ranks Garcia as the 18th best prospect in the Phillies organization.
