INJURIES
Loses roster spot Atlanta designated Newcomb for assignment Tuesday.
Impact Newcomb's lack of remaining minor-league options helped him make Atlanta's Opening Day roster, but he was able to maintain his spot in the big-league bullpen for long. He allowed a run on two hits and two walks over 1.1 innings in Monday's loss to the Dodgers, marking the third time in as many appearances that he gave up at least one run. Atlanta recalled Dylan Lee from Triple-A Gwinnett to replace Newcomb as a left-handed option out of the bullpen.

Shaky start to season Newcomb gave up one run on two hits and two walks over 1.1 innings in Monday's loss to the Dodgers. He struck out one.
Impact Entering the game in the fourth inning in relief of Huascar Ynoa, Newcomb wasn't much more effective than Atlanta's starter. The 28-year-old southpaw has a 7.20 ERA, 2.20 WHIP and 4:4 K:BB through his first five innings this season, and Newcomb doesn't seem likely to move out of a low-leverage role any time soon.

MARCH 22, 2022 • Associated Press
Tendered contract for 2022 Newcomb and Atlanta agreed Tuesday on a one-year, $900,000 contract to avoid arbitration.
Impact Newcomb will be competing for a spot in the reigning champions' bullpen this spring after turning in a 4.73 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 43:27 K:BB across 32.1 innings in 2021. The lefty doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, which should work in his favor in his bid for Atlanta's Opening Day roster.

Sent to Triple-A Newcomb was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2021 • Associated Press
Recalled by Atlanta Newcomb was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.
Impact Newcomb was dominant in the minors after he was sent down in late July, and he posted a 0.93 ERA and 0.72 WHIP in 9.2 innings across eight appearances since his demotion. He'll provide an extra arm in the bullpen after right-hander Chris Martin (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

AUGUST 1, 2021 • Associated Press
Returns to minors Atlanta optioned Newcomb to Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.
Impact The southpaw has appeared in three games since his most recent call-up, allowing two runs on six hits and a pair of walks in 3.2 innings. Overall this season, Newcomb has pitched 25.1 innings with a 5.68 ERA and 1.78 WHIP. He certainly could return to Atlanta at some point in 2021 if injuries hit any of the team's relievers.

Padres-Braves rained out, doubleheader set for Wednesday

JULY 20, 2021 • Associated Press
Back with big club Atlanta recalled Newcomb from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.
Impact Atlanta has an opening in the rotation to begin the second half after Ian Anderson (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list last week, but the team will turn to Touki Toussaint to fill the void rather than giving Newcomb another trial as a starter. Due to his spotty control and shallow repertoire, Atlanta seems committed to deploying Newcomb strictly as a reliever at this point in his career. All 29 of his appearances this season between the big club and Triple-A have come out of the bullpen, with Newcomb working no more than two innings in any of those outings.

Impact Newcomb was recalled by Atlanta in mid-May, and he posted a 4.70 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 15.1 innings across 16 relief appearances during his time in the majors. He had posted scoreless outings in five of his last six appearances, but he'll now head to Triple-A Gwinnett after Max Fried (finger) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.
