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.
