Alec Hansen reintroduced himself to Birmingham with an appearance out of the Barons' bullpen on Tuesday, and just like his last two in Winston-Salem, it featured multiple walks.
- First seven games: 10 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 18 K
- Last three games: 3.2 IP, 1 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 7 BB, 4 K, 1 HBP
It's probably unfair to any player to assess him game-by-game, but in Hansen's case, this kind of burp warrants at least partial attention, since it complicates any decision to move him back to the rotation.
