This series and the Dodgers series was an arse whupping. Really discouraging for future purposes.
For me the Yankee series really wasn't.

Good reminder that scouting the box score isn't always effective

You may want to look at the statistics.
Interesting stats I dug up on Newcomb. Remember how he was striking out more people earlier in the year and its been dropping of late? Check out the curve usage vs. change-up usage of late. Interesting. https://www.fangraphs.com/graphs.as...type=mult>1=15&dStatArray=FA,CU&ymin=&ymax=

Okay. Freeman is outpacing him by a whole 1.0 fWAR heading into this game.

might be more useful to look at just 2018 data and also a shorter moving average (say 3 games) if you want to make the case that change in curve usage is what has driven fluctuations in performance this year
also the causality is a bit tricky...it could be that he has lost his feel for his change up and that is what is contributing to both the change in usage and the decline in effectiveness

Pretty evident which one is going to continue being an elite hitter and which one isn't. Although, Aguilar is certainly a very good power hitter.
