After struggling as a Marlin all the way up to June 1st of this season, Brad Ziegler turned his season around and the Marlins were able to trade him along with the remaining $3 million he is owed. From June 1st to July 29th, Ziegler had a 0.93 ERA in 29 innings.
In return for him the Marlins receive an intriguing relief pitcher in Tommy Eveld from the Diamondbacks. A South Florida guy and former quarterback at USF, Eveld has enjoyed a very good age 24 season between High-A and Double-A ball.
