This situation is a big test for Paulino. Reliever could be warming. eta- that K is good start eta- that wild pitch didn't help
I've been surprised how much he's gone to his changeup and how well it's looked. The scouting reports called it a third pitch. Haven't seen the curve that much. The fastball looks pretty darn straight. Guys are fouling the fastball pretty easily.
I don't know how many pitches he threw his last 2 times out, but he faced 23 and 25 hitters. He may be stretched out, so I don't know if 80 has to be a max unless he just needs to be pulled (which I could understand)
Paulino is going to be really good once his delivery tightens up and his mechanics become more repeatable. I trust the development guys.
