2017 Analysis

I recall three facts about Wilhelmsen’s time in the Valley, none of which relate to his play on the field:

1. He was tall
2. He worked at a tiki bar in Tucson, hence the nickname “The Bartender”
3. His walk out song was the Arctic Monkeys hit “R U Mine,” which I enjoyed

On the field, Wilhelmsen never stuck out for his performance, good or bad.
