I'm not so sure about Perez in the pen. Maybe, but walks are the last thing you want out of a reliever, and his splits aren't good pitching from the stretch.

So bringing him into an I nong with runners on seems like trouble.

 

I don't know either. 

 

But... He has stuff and we need someone with stuff and a left hand in the pen.  :)

Strangely enough, walk rates with relievers (last I checked at least) were up pretty significantly league wide. I'm not disagreeing in that I'd prefer to see those limited, but it seems the league has moved to high K low contact guys and don't mind a few walks as a side effect.

right now I prefer him to Berrios in the rotation.

Anyone miss Lynn ?

 

Yes - if not for all of the extra outs the Rangers have given us Lynn would be well on his way to 5-6 innings and looking like he'd shut us out.

maybe that's one reason last I looked reliever ERA was higher than starter ERA for the first time in my lifetime.
