Is Reds reliever Robert Stephenson primed to break out?

Error 0:

Connor Byrne of MLB Trade Rumors wrote about Cincinnati Reds reliever Robert Stephenson and his being a breakout candidate on Monday. In 2019 he made a full on transition to the bullpen for the Reds. The now 27-year-old right-handed pitcher had a bit of a breakout season in 2019 as it was. He entered the year with a 5.47 ERA for his career in 133.1 innings. The big area where he struggled the most was in his inability to keep his walk rate at a quality level. But last season he walked just 24 batters – and four of those were intentional – in 64.
