Archie Bradley could develop into a Wade Davis type reliever

Archie Bradley was once an elite prospect just two years after being drafted out of high school by the Diamondbacks in 2011. However, injuries and inconsistencies have slowed Bradley in the majors. His long term future is still somewhat in the air. Is he a starter or a reliever at the MLB level? Based on the headline, you already know what my answer will be.

We rewind to 5 seasons ago. The Rays had a very good young pitcher by the name of Wade Davis. As a starter, Davis pitched to an 85 ERA+ and 4.79 FIP in 2011.
