University of Illinois reliever Jake Toohey makes Big Ten Hardball’s 10 Pitchers You Should Know list.
Of Toohey, BTH says:
Toohey is one of the conference’s best closers. He tied for sixth in the Big Ten in saves in ’06. The Illini righthander had a very strong summer in the Northwoods League and probably should have been added to the Stopper of the Year pre-season
watch list.
It’s no surprise that the list is otherwise dominated by Wolverines and Buckeyes.
