D-backs see upgraded role for improved RHP Archie Bradley
But quietly, as he has been moved into lower-leverage situations and the team has gone with Yoan Lopez in many of its late-inning situations, Bradley has improved. The 26-year-old hasn’t allowed a run in his last seven outings, which have totaled nine innings of work with only five hits, five walks and a .172 opponents’ average.

“Archie’s role has changed into more of a high-leverage situation,” Lovullo said. “He’s getting those positive roles. I think while we were picking him up off the mat for a couple games, he was getting those negative roles just to get his feet up under him, and he did a good job with that. So now he’s been in a lot of games where we’ve been even or ahead early. He’s bridged us to the back end of the bullpen, which is fantastic.”

'Good to see Archie coming back to Major League level.

Time will tell whether Ronin or Archie himself is the cause
of the league catching up with Archie's fast ball. :)
