I think you are confused. He was set up over the middle of the plate. I think you were pimping the Soxs in the other thread to really know what you are saying.

LOL ok bud. I'll find video tomorrow. Stakes on a bet?
Simply stating the obvious. He was much better that inning. He will have a very easy inning this one too..
Coppy
maybe not.. lol.. Newk velocity is down this inning too..
Coppy
back to missing outside..

I don't care whether a guy who hasn't been had a single average month thus far as a hitter doesn't play every day.
He has a wRC+ of 58 in 343 PA and he has made 14 errors en route to his negative WAR.
I've never been blown away by him and I don't particularly see any reason why the club should keep trotting him out every day if he isn't going to perform.
In July he's striking out 30% of the time and has a wRC+ of 24.
What on earth makes you think he deserves to continue getting at bats every day like he's Chipper Jones?
Send him to AAA? Sure if you like. I don't care.
Snit awake?
Why the hell is Newcomb still in the game at 100 pitches with bases loaded and no one out?
Not understanding that decision.
Oh, because it was a lefty. should have guessed.
Newk needs to be pulled after the Heyward single.
We should definetely give up on him. His career is mapped out as a PR specialist.
BTW, despite the errors, fangraphs and BR have him as a plus defender
LOL 3 base runners then pulled after getting 1 out. I guess the rest of the inning will be pretty easy for him while sitting on the bench haha.
You truly are a Newk expert!!
Matt Adams can't throw the baseball. Every time he has a chance to make a play with a throw, it's always stuck in his glove. Seriously
Super.
Yea he dd...
He yelled "Y'all are sellers now!!"
OK, why can't everyone admit it? The rushed him. And now it has blown up in their face.
Let's hope he can recover.
Had to step away.. how did Jackson look. he always makes me nervous.

I really do think he is going to be ok.....The game will slow down for him and he will get his confidence going...Kid is a baller...
Yep. Look at conforto taking a big step backwards last year (1st full season) before coming back strong. Jackie Bradley jr is another guy that took a while. Both got sent back to AAA some their 1st full year to get things ironed out. Giving up on Swanson this early is just dumb... play him in Atlanta or Gwinnett
