    Didn't they use to televise baseball games sometimes, or am I making this up? I'm pretty sure I've watched baseball on TV before.

    Didn't the radar gun have Gausman with unusually low velocity as well? Hopefully this is a sign it's just a slow gun.
    thank you weso1!

    The Braves just need to suck it up and sign Keuchel. I know it's an overreaction, but these injuries are terrifying. Folty is hurt, Gaus is something, Newk has never been a favorite of mine, Julio is Julio. I trust the young pitchers more lol

    As I’ve said for over a year now, Newk is a “stuff #4”, and it will be a race between his control improving and his stuff declining to determine how successful he ultimately is. I also posted data showing pitchers at his age don’t usually improve their control significantly. Nothing Newk is doing should be unexpected by anyone.

    Newk is likely experiencing a bit of dead arm right now, which is fairly common at the later stages of ST. I wouldn’t worry too much about his velocity right now as long as he isn’t injured. We saw the standard “10 day DL rest period” work well for him last year when he started to wear down, so expect to see a similar strategy this year.

    Having said all that, Newk is going to be in the rotation for a while this year because he’s a good pitcher, he’s established at the MLB level, and he’s healthy. What we should all be hoping for is guys like Soroka, Wright and Touki make the strides necessary (health and/or polish) to push Newk to the BP where he profiles as a high leverage arm.

    As I’ve said for almost 2 years now, I still like Wright the most of all the young pitchers.

    Did he smoke ankther ball up the middle that turned into an out? I’ve seen him do that twice so far in the limited number of televised games.

    He smashed a ball to short on his first double play. Then lined out to pitcher for his second double play.

    He fouled a ball off his ankle, under the protector. I’m at the game.

    Who else is excited to see what Pache does this year in the minors. He is a special player imo.
