is he going to get like 10 million in arb?

Probably more $4,000,000

Third time he's taken a no-no into the seventh this year.

Fifth time he's taken a perfect game into the fifth.

Sixth time he's taken a no-no into the fifth.

Seventh time he's gone through the order once without allowing a hit.

So what's Szczur's range like? Does Alcantara get to that ball?

Jake has allowed 2 or less runs in 18 of his 24 starts

 

Absolutely dominant performance

3 or less in 21, what a year by him

 

Just to compare...I'm not saying Arrieta is anywhere near his league, but Kershaw has allowed 2 runs or less in 19 of 25 starts. Both are pretty consistently great.

Hadn't seen the video yet, Philips strutting out of the box is one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. What a goon.
