    9 Ks, 8 of them swinging. Newk is simply beating these hitters.

    Yes. Two very big developments if it could pan out.

Dansby really does look like he's made adjustments, but it will take some time to be sure.
    Coredor, good to see you.

    When you have three plus pitches the hitters can't sit and there will be ugly swings.

    Newk is feasting on this aggressive lineup.
    With Spieth making a run, could be an exciting finish at the Masters. Rockies do not want to miss it.

    Gee Ender. You might want to give Newcomb a chance to catch his breath.

    So why is it crazy to think Albies can hit 30 homers?

    In the playoffs, I don’t let Newk bat here.

    In the regular season with only 79 pitches, only up by 3 on getaway day, I let Newk keep going.

    This team...man, I think we have too many holes and question marks, but this season could be interesting.

    Albies is a few more multi-hit games or a big 3-4 game away from having a really solid AVG :)

    This is incredibly impressive.
    Is there a stat for non competitive pitches? IMO that is the deal with newk. His stuff is so good if he’s close it’s tough. He just has a history of throwing too many that have no hope of being a strike.

    I don’t think dansby is this good. If he’s the 3 war guy we thought that is a big change.

    Still a lot of magic. Suzuki is hitting clean up ...
