6/21 gigantes

80 pitches for Newk. Would have liked to see him try to get through the lineup that 3rd time.

Snit likely wanted a RHer to face the 3 RHed hitters coming up.
 
Kansas City farm (once lauded) is absolutely horrendous right now. They need to trade all of their assets next month just to try to restock their farm. They are not going to win the World Series this year.
 
In a playoff game this was the correct move to make. Snit is practicing for next year.

Guessing it was a combination of the hitters due up and their general plan for limiting Newcomb's innings. He'd have been over 90 and approaching 100+ if he completed the inning and that's probably more than they want him tossing.
 
Jace hitting .339 at AAA. I think it's time to flip him and Ruiz. Camargo will and should play at 3b, so let Ruiz play every day at AAA
