Hansen has been huge relief

SoxisSickies found this 6 months ago on www.boston.com

boston.com - What do the Red Sox do if the middle of the bullpen continues to struggle? Well, the Sox are watching the way Craig Hansen is setting down hitters in Pawtucket. Hansen has pitched 9 1/3 scoreless innings in his first six appearances for the PawSox, after finishing last season with 14 2/3 scoreless innings. Overall, opposing batters are hitting .065 (2 for 31) against him this season, with most of his success coming against righthanded hitters, who have one infield hit in 24 at-bats. One Sox official said the team is impressed with the way Hansen has been asserting himself on the mound - the surgery for sleep apnea may be a factor - but they want to see him continue his early success before making any moves.
