Sell on the news: Bergesen


On Sunday, Bradley Bergesen earned his fourth Win of the season against only two Losses. The 23-year-old posted a complete-game five-hitter over Atlanta.

Bergesen's success disguises base rates that are being flattened as he rises through the ranks:

      Lvl   K/9  K/BB
      ===   ===  ====
2007  A     6.5   4.2
2008  AA    4.4   2.7
2009  MLB   4.2   1.9
Bergesen's ERA now sits at 3.79. However, his LIPS ERA is above 4.50, and his "True Talent" ERA (per Heater Magazine) is a run higher still. Fortunate owners should be working the phones.
