get fish 6/16

So you think they juiced the gun early in the game, then juiced it even more late?

I don't really know on the gun, except it would be odd that Straily was hitting right on his averages and Newcomb would be way over. Also weird for Newcomb to bump up 2-3 MPH over what he's been reported to throw, so dunno.

Promising start either way.
 
Just wanted to see. Some seem to think we juiced the gun for Newcomb, fixed it for straily, juiced it more for Newcomb later, fixed it for motte...

I think that's exactly what happened. I am willing to bet pitchfx will show Straily was hovering right around 90 all night, and will also show Newk was being over shot.
 
Yes, because we know how infallible pitch/fx is. LOL! It's old tech that has its own issues. It's being phased out by Statcast.

The data listed in the pitchfx column is now statcast data.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good pozzy-Barve derp fest! Derp!!!

As hard as it is to think Newk was hitting 101.. I just don't see why the gun would be juiced JUST for Newk on his second big league start. I just see no benefit in doing so. But what ever. I am more interested in how he comes out next start over some Fx data.

Wait. You really think the Braves put their finger on the scale for Newcomb?

Interesting.
 
DOB says a scout with radar gun had Newk measured similar to the first start (93-94)

Stadium gun was hot tonight.
 
I'm here at the game...Newk was throwing hard..and the fun was watching the crowd in our section ooooh and ahhh
