Answer: Adonis Garcia
Adonis Garcia did not make his MLB debut until he was 30 years of age in 2015. He was with the Braves from 2015-2017 before Johan Camargo stole his third base spot.
Adonis has a brother, Adolis, that is currently with the World Series Champion Texas Rangers and has been a huge part of their success. Adonis had high expectations that he unfortunately did not live up to, ending his MLB career just three seasons after his debut.
