I like to think, judging by my daily debates with LDF, CubKilla, aboz, etc, that I am the biggest Koch supporter around. I have confidence in him, and really wanted to see him come in when we had the 8-5 lead last night. That way, we have Schoene for tonight if we need him. Now that puts TONS of pressure on Billy, because he will most likely be pitching tonight vs Seattle, a team that has broken our closers hearts multiple times before. Fact is, his velocity has been going up slowly, I remember 91-92 in April being all the gun would say. I have seen 95-96 here lately, and I further believe that Oakland blew his arm out last year with no regards for his future. He was the closer, and it didn't matter how much he was being used, because he wanted the ball when the game is on teh line, no matter what. I think we'll see Billy catch on here real soon, and I for one will sit back and smile.
