    In all honesty, the rotation next year to me is probably Folty/Gausman/Teheran/Touki/Wright by early June if he doesn't have a setback. Maybe all 5 right handers.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Yep. Newcomb is also a project who has a lot less experience than those his own age. Newcomb has a lot of growing pains to get through.

    Newcomb's slower break ball is a good weapon, they need to use that pitch more... Just my opinion, but the kid has pitched much better than his line tonight

    For me Newcomb is traded this offseason, he's not on the team period, end of the story, I can't stand poor control in relief even more than starting.

    Nice stat there on Camargo... his homerun was off a 99.7 mph fastball. That's the fastest pitch hit for a HR this year in mlb
