Wilson new keystone in no-roles bullpen

Neftali Feliz got some selection, since he's been a closer before. So did Bruce Rondon, because of his stuff. Alex Wilson got some predictions, too.

Nobody predicted a five-out save, but when Wilson entered the game with one out in the eighth inning of the Tigers' 9-8 victory, they figured it was his game to lose.
