And of the 21 batters faced when it's not the 9th inning, 10 have reached base. In the 9th 12 of 20 have reached.

Non 9th, .389 baa, .476 obp
9th inn. .467 baa .600 obp

:eh

Yeah, he was able to get out of those non-9th innings without giving up a ton of runs, but certainly not numbers where he needs to be in any meaningful games right now.

He was in a non-pressure mop-up roll last night, which right now, is right where he needs to be, and should stay there until those numbers start getting a whole lot better. IMO of course.:geek

I started out with nothing...and I still have most of it.
