    Because Coppy and his scout staff suck balls

    I'm not a big Newcomb guy, but your hate towards the dude is weird
    It's nothing personal. Just hate that we built around pitching more than anything.

    He has a good reason to hate him and his name Andrelton Simmons

    I'm holding out hope for Newcomb, but I haaaaate that we traded Tron Simmons for him, particularly since Fluffy Jesus is struggling.

    Hate coppy then... not Newcomb's fault.

    I, and I realize I'm pretty much alone, think folty is holding his own pretty well for a rookie

    Not a problem if they were any good at it. Clearly Coppy and staff haven't done jack sh!t when it comes to pitching.

    I already hate that bald headed douche. I'm tired of reliving 1980's Braves baseball.

    On the road at a hitter's paradise vs a playoff team. Just awful for a rookie pitcher

    96 mph heater blown by Story to end his night. Certainly not a terrible night.

    You don't have to run into a sure out just because its 3-2 and 2 out. You don't have to give outs away you moron

    Yeah. I thought he got squeezed on a couple of those passes. Especially the one to Parra.

    Shhhh. That's true. Didn't love the trade, but I think Newk is OK for now. If the dude ever consistently threw strikes....IF....I'd feel much better. He has good stuff
