As a Cub fan, I was worried he wouldn't be able to repeat last year given how good he was and the major amount of innings he threw, but he looked pretty **** good tonight. I'm not sure what I'm going to do in the fall watching USF football and a legit Chicago Cubs team. Rooting for multiple winning teams is not something I'm used to.

As a Pirates fan, I was certainly hoping for a collapse.  Cubs are stacked.  Could be their year.

Dude is 15-0 in last 16 starts with. .053 era and two no hitters in that stretch.  

 

No pitcher has every thrown a no hitter and hasn't lost a game In between throwing another.  Not like that's a shock it's never happened before but amazing it did happen.  

His only non decision vs the mets in the playoffs when the swept the Cubs.

Isn't that sort of how every trade works? Every team could have Mike Trout.

i think i undertand your point

jake a was in the discount bin

usually teams trade for a need

no- trout was drafted so only the teams that picked ahead of the angels had a shot at him
