re: Newcomb has got to cut down on walks.

I have not been impressed by Newcomb at all. He had 7 walks last night and it didn't feel unusual.

His first few starts he was pumping strikes, but ever since the Houston start he's been wild in and out of the zone. I don't know if getting shelled sent him back into bad habits or what, but you can't pitch like that and keep a job. Even in the bullpen.
