With a K rate of 4.3 and a BB rate almost as high, I'm not too encouraged.

 

He did look okay in his last full season (2012), but it's been a long time with little playing time. He has less than 20 IP since 2013!

Well, it's been 4 years since he pitched a lot in a season, so maybe they know something we don't, or they saw him throw in a try-out or something.

Maybe it was a favor to his agent as thanks for avoiding arbitration with someone...
