Brian Wilson = Fun, Fun, Fun?

Wilson gets the call up, per roto world:

"Giants recalled RHP Brian Wilson from Triple-A Fresno.
Wilson had a 2.10 ERA for Fresno, but that came with 24 walks in 34 1/3 innings. While the Giants were hoping he'd be their closer by now, there's still little reason to think he's ready to aid the pen."

What Rotoworld misses is that, per the log of Wilson's last 10 outings, he has a 13/2 K/BB ratio during that period. Any Giants fans know if something clicked? Or is that just a small sample size fluke?

God knows the guy has the stuff to be a great reliever, just needs to limit the walks. Be interesting to see how he works out.

Thank you, thank you...
I'll be here all week. And thank you to Scooter who left me the brilliant set-up. I never would have thought of it if he didn't put the "fun, fun, fun" in the title.

If he could keep up that ERA...
Wouldn't it be nice?

Wouldn't it be nice...
if he could keep his ERA down, then he wouldn't have to wait so long....

Call me butter, cause I'm on a roll!

PS- Is it obvious that the first ever tape I bought was a Beach Boys tape?
