Clears suspension
Garces is eligible again for the match against Montreal following his red-card ban.
Analysis: Garces should be ready to contend for a center-back spot, though he hasn't made an MLS start since May 14, with Maya Yoshida and Jakob Glesnes favored over him. While the Colombian's availability strengthens the depth of the team, he may be reliable only when there's rotation or if he eventually takes on a bigger role, in which case he may produce several passes, tackles and clearances.
Sent off Saturday
Garces played 13 minutes as a substitute and picked up a red card in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Garces got sent off for a last-man foul following VAR review, so he's now heading back to the sidelines right after returning from a previous ban. He'll be ineligible for the upcoming game versus San Jose Earthquakes before looking to return against Montreal on Aug. 22. Maya Yoshida should continue to get the nod alongside Jakob Glesnes while Garces serves his suspension.
