The LA Angels are currently sitting a half game back of the Minnesota Twins for the second AL Wild Card spot. The team has finally been playing consistently well, despite being 6-4 over their last ten games. Their bullpen is a big reason for this success. They have finally seemed to solve their problems, and it has been thanks to Yusmeiro Petit.
It is not often a pitcher with a 4.32 career ERA has a career year at 32 years old. However, Petit is doing just that. He owns an era of 2.47 on the season, and is striking out hitters at a staggering rate.
