GDT 7/31/19: Deadline day pairs Soroka and Skillet Hands

Ok.... one seeing eye single and what probably should've been an error led to those guys on base. Newk prompt gives up a hit and walks a guy on 4 straight pitches.

Put that on Jackson if you want (I know the runs go to him), but to ignore Newk's role is pretty dumb IMO.

I agree. Was about to finish post when Josh hit the bomb. Newks Inherited Runners Scoring has to be astronomical, and that's a big part of a relievers role, stopping inherited runners from scoring.
 
Snitker saw that position player throwing 60mph to get the save in Anaheim last week. Tomlin throws low-mid 80's. Great call.
