Kevin Newman Homers In Loss Monday
3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates shortstop Kevin Newman went 2-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and a run scored in a 3-2 loss to the Nationals. It was Newman's second homer of the season, and his first since April 24 as he is now slashing .209/.250/.270 with two steals, 12 RBI and 20 runs scored over 60 games this year. After Newman's ridiculous numbers in Spring Training, to say that his performance this season has been disappointing is an understatement. Until he shows significant improvement at the plate, he should not be rostered in any format.
