Will this just be an annual thing? or will he have years with multiple No-No's? Will he challenge Nolan Ryan for most career No-Hitters?

He only struck out six. That means he needed help with 21 outs. No-Hitters are a team stat.

He induced a lot of weak contact by hitters. Not too many tough chances on hard hit balls.

He said in the post game (paraphrasing) that he wasn't quite right.

I think he could easily get another no-hitter this summer. They have a road trip to Miami and Cinci in late June, I could easily see him getting a no-hitter on that trip.

I'm not sure he'll ever get a home no-no though.

:lol: Hollandsworth said he could challenge Ryan's 7. Even Kaplan was taken aback.

Crazy but how much more common are no hitters than in Ryan's day?

Theyre way up

They do seem more common than ever.

I just can't imagine him having 5 more in his career.

Not really. Think of the 2014 season, when he had N0-Hitters going through 7-8 innings a few times without getting one. I will not be surprised if he gets a few more. The guy has a pretty good defensive team behind him too. Rizzo and Russell are plus defensive players, Bryant and Zobrist are solid as well. The only shaky defensive player currently in the lineup is Soler. By next year, that may change too.

I agree. I think we are overlooking the difficulty because he's had the last two so close together.

On a different note, though, I will say the older I get, the more I like homers like Kaplan and Hollandsworth or Hawk or whoever else. There is no one in my house who gives a shit that Arrieta threw a no-hitter besides me, so it's nice to watch a couple goofs who are so excited over it that one is basically predicting 6 more no-hitters. It's at least genuine and fun.

Agreed. But 10 years ago I'd set the o/u @ 0.5

Now maybe 1.5

I believe he did pitch two, one being a perfect game
