Newcombe Hurts Arm in Training for Dodgers
The Brooklyn Dodgers at Vero Beach fear the worst as ace Don Newcombe injured his elbow during pickoff practice. He left the mound with the arm bothering him and will rest with treatment to assess severity. Newcombe, NL MVP last year, downplays the setback, saying it felt like a twinge and could be nothing. Meanwhile camps in Bradenton, St. Petersburg, and New York weigh outfield and lineup changes as teams consider left field, center field, and third base options.

New Hope for Curt Simmons in 1957 comeback season
Water, Fla. Curt Simmons, after two spring training nightmares, carries renewed promise into 1957 with the Phillies. Once plagued by arm trouble from 1954, he fought through a poor 1956 to post a 15-10 record. He recalls pitching limitations and salary disputes, but his early-season form showed he could return to earlier dominance with a three-hitter against St Louis signaling the comeback.
