Makes spring debut
Newcomb (knee) made his Cactus League debut in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Royals, striking out four over two scoreless innings while working around two hits and one walk.
ANALYSIS
Newcomb's integration into the spring pitching schedule was delayed while he completed his recovery from the surgery he underwent on his left knee last September, but he looked sharp in his two-inning appearance Sunday. Though Newcomb could be built up for a starting role over the final two weeks of the spring, he still looks set to miss out on a spot in the Opening Day rotation. Even if that's the case, Newcomb could still be included on the Opening Day roster as a long reliever.

2015
Newcomb earned a rotation spot to begin the 2020 season, but his poor play resulted in the southpaw making just four starts for Atlanta. He tossed 13.2 innings early in the year, posting an 11.20 ERA and 1.90 WHIP during that time before being sent down in August. While his woes occurred over a limited sample, he had a career-low 36.0 GB% with a 9.6% barrel rate, resulting in a 2.63 HR/9. His 5.63 SIERA was slightly more encouraging, but it was still the worst mark of his career. Newcomb was a fantasy liability last year, and he certainly isn't guaranteed a starting role in 2021. The 27-year-old's average fastball velocity dipped to 93.4 mph in 2020, and he didn't force enough swings and misses to warrant serious consideration for a high-leverage role. Newcomb has had some success in past seasons, but his recent results suggest that he could be better off left on the fantasy waiver wire to begin the year.
