The new Alex Colome has actually been around for a year

But one year old is still new, right?

When I watched Alex Colome pitch last Friday, I was impressed. I talked about how Colome was a complete pitcher again. I talked about how he used all four of his pitches, and how he set up his putaway pitch in several different ways. I talked about how if he could continue to pitch like that, he'd remain a starter, and force other players to move to the bullpen. I thought we were seeing a new Colome.

I was wrong, sort of. Thing is, we saw Colome pitch this way last season.
