Can the Arizona Diamondbacks make Chris Devenski great again?

The Arizona Diamondbacks continue to make moves around the fringes this offseason, but they inked an intriguing piece in former Astros bullpen ace Chris Devenski. After acquiring him for Brett Myers back in 2012, the former 25th round pick developed into a bullpen weapon for Houston. In his first two seasons, Devenski put up a 2.38 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and 4.7 bWAR over 189 innings with a 204/46 K/BB ratio out of the Astros bullpen. His work helped Houston clinch a World Series title in the 2017 season.

After his stellar entrance into the MLB, Devenski regressed to a league-average reliever in 2018.
