EDGE Analysis

Tarpley appeared in one game with the big-league club this season, but he has spent the majority of his time at Triple-A Syracuse. There, he posted a 15.58 ERA and 3.17 WHIP across 8.2 innings. His removal from the 40-man roster created room for Jerad Eickhoff to have his contract selected.
