I don't think we've had a quick hook in many incidents. If you are behind by 3 runs and come in relief, hit the first batter or walked them with runners in scoring position, how long of a hook do you get? Throw strikes, or sit the bench. Results matter, what a pitcher did in a previous game doesn't in that moment.

I thought we pulled both Wilson and Bonds too early in the Arkansas game. They were both looking very solid. The subsequent options were…less than satisfactory

I think 15 games is a good point to see how the team compares to the past.

We actually have not lost this yr when we score 5 runs or more.

What sticks out to me--is the approach on the mound. Look at the years with lowest ERA to this point and the relative k per 9 innings-- In the years with great success on the mound- low era- the #k's is lower and bb per 9 is lower- meaning guys are NOT trying to strike everyone out but pitching to contact. Tho not exclusive-- generally speaking - in my opinion,, we have more guys trying to light up the radar gun and strike people out-- thus no one gets to the 6th inning much less entire game like Wilson did. My hope is that some the guys struggling to get out of an inning - much less an entire game-- without lighting up the radar gun. The object is to get guys out,, not make trac-man light up.
Wilson did a great job.
