So that's why he's better than Valdez

Pretty sure this is the Magician who performs Friday nights at the Rib Trader.

Certainly more flexible for the team!

Notably many of our relievers are running above average K%-BB% rates for the year so far (sample size of course): http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=rel&lg=all&qual=0&type=1&season=2017&month=0&season1=2017&ind=0&team=1&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=8,d

If we continue to struggle heading into July it would not surprise me to see Eppler trade away one or more relievers particularly the ones with contracts expiring (Petit, Chavez, and Norris for sure).
