When should the Oakland A's call up Jesse Hahn from Triple-A?

Jesse Hahn made his second start for the Triple-A Nashville Sounds on Wednesday, and for the second time he threw six scoreless innings against minor league competition. It took him 90 pitches this time, but he only walked one batter (on a close 3-2 pitch) while striking out six. According to Nashville Sounds play-by-play man Jeff Hem, Hahn dialed up to 96-97 mph on his fastball and had his "nasty" curve working. Here's a look at his line from each game:

Hahn, 4/08: 6 ip, 0 runs, 5 Ks, 3 BB, 2 hits, 74 pitches
Hahn, 4/13: 6 ip, 0 runs, 6 Ks, 1 BB, 4 hits, 90 pitches

A bit of background to catch you up: The 26-year-old Hahn has the ability to be a No.
