JUPITER, Fla. • Greg Garcia is resigned to the idea that he’ll forever be called Jaime.

“It’s at least three times a day,” Garcia said. “I’m going to get called Jaime probably for the rest of my life. I’ve accepted that.”

Righthanded and an infielder, Greg Garcia rarely walks off the field without a fan trying to ask for his autograph because a fan thinks he’s Jaime Garcia, who is lefthanded and a pitcher. No relation, other than the team they play on, all the two Garcias share is the same name on the front and back of their jersey. And they’re not alone. Earlier this spring manager Mike Matheny joked that he could yell out “Garcia” and have a handful of players turn around.

The Cardinals entered spring training with four Garcias on the roster, two pitchers, one infielder, and one outfielder.

But not one first initial among them.
