The 28-year-old lefty posted an odd mix of numbers for Triple-A Oklahoma City -- while he struck out 39 while posting a spectacular 1.65 ERA in 27 appearances (32.2 innings), he also walked 16 and owns a 1.32 WHIP, suggesting that he's been the beneficiary of good luck. With the desperate need for solid lefty relievers across the league, he's likely to get a shot with another franchise soon.
