3/12 vs Phillies

Yep. In one of Olney's articles, Olney talks about the importance of a pitcher being able to throw a get it over breaking ball for a strike to either get ahead in the count or come back from behind. David Ross calls these "dumpers." Olney then quoted a scout saying Newcomb has started throwing these this spring, a sure sign of development.

Newk to the Hall of Fame confirmed!

Newk with control would be huge for this team

Wow, did the Angels get enough of a return in the Erick Aybar trade?

I don’t think BB Rate will stabilize fast enough in spring training for us to really draw anything at all from this. Need at least 170 batters faced.

Encouraging performance though

I watched several Newk minor league games. This is not new for Newk. He literally could walk 5 his next start. He is the most frustrating pitcher I have watched recently. You know by first inning if it is good Newk or bad Newk.
