I think Soroka showed 5 different pitches: 2 seamer, 4 seamer, change, curve and slider.
The 2 seamer looked legit with good fade and drop. The rest appeared to be average.
Obviously just an eye test though.
While Soroka and Newcomb both gave up a run....I felt much better about Soroka

It wouldn’t be Braves baseball without a runner being thrown out at home by 10’.

Wright is pitching!
Nasty back foot slider
Fastball down the middle got ripped
Wright has some downright nasty stuff
Get off my lawn!
Wright is going to be fun to watch....

Wright’s slider was nasty when it was down. His curve looked a little too much like a lollipop get over pitch.
It sucks we can’t see the velo on the fastball, but Wright’s certainly didn’t have anywhere near the movement of Soroka’s.
AJax Ks on a breaking ball that landed 5’ in front of the plate...vs a LHP.
Riley sawed off by a side arming ROOGY.
Just want to say thanks to those that are keeping up with the game and keeping those of us who are unlucky enough to not be able to see or hear the game.
It is just one inning early in spring training against scrubs, but I thought both Soroka and Wright showed very good stuff.
