When Chris Devenski was announced as the player to be named later that was acquired to complete the trade of Brett Myers to the White Sox, well, it was far from a heralded addition. Devenski had a bit of gas in the tank, but was a college reliever, a 25th round pick, and at the time was posting a 4.59 FIP for Chicago's Class-A Minor League club.
After five solid starts in 2012 with the Class-A affiliate of the Astros, Devenski mostly struggled as he worked his way through Houston's farm system, his FIP and peripherals varying widely, and mostly below Double-A.
