6 IP, 2.10 WHIP, 20.0 K%, 11.4 BB%, 6.75 HR/9 (!), 9.45 ERA, 13.07 FIP, -0.3 fWAR

The good

Somehow, some way, Llovera occupied a spot on the 40-man roster until mid-August. That has to count for something right?

The bad

Why did he occupy a 40-man roster spot for so long?

When the team was so desperate for pitching this summer, looking for someone - anyone - who could throw innings for them, they looked like they were afraid to lose any player on their 40-man roster to waivers, thinking someone would claim them and spin them into gold.
