He Was MLB's Best Pitcher, Then He Disappeared From Baseball...

Спорт

Jake Arrieta was one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball from 2014-2016, but his incredible prime is not remembered as it should be following his rocky ride with the Philadelphia Phillies during his 3 year 75 million dollar deal. Because of this, I knew I had to make a video regarding one of my favorite pitchers growing up to remind everyone just how incredible of a player he was.

    Watching Jake Arrieta dominate in 2015 was special to watch. It didn't matter what team you rooted for, you enjoyed watching him perform. It sucks that he faded so quickly.

    Trust me. Jake Arrietta is nowhere close to being a forgotten name in Pirates fans minds. His 2015 season was the most dominance Ive personally seen from a pitcher, and if it were not for him, the pirates had a team that was capable of winning a world series. Zero doubt

    As an Orioles fan, I'm glad Arrieta found success. The Os player development, especially for pitching, was absolutely dreadful during the 2010s. Another pivotal change the cubs made was allowing Arrieta to throw a cutter, as the Os banned their prospects from throwing cutters during this time, if I remember correctly.

    I’ll be honest I remember not buying into the Arrieta hype at first because of a few reasons A) his stint in Baltimore he wasn’t that good, B) he was a cub (I’m a Brewers fan) but he had a solid career and I think since I teach a sports psychology class and we’re on a chapter of mental toughness (just finished the chapter on anxiety in sports) I will use this video for one of my lessons in the next couple days. Great video

    As a life long cubs fan I didn't really think too much when they got Arrieta and Strop from Baltimore in 2013. Both were crucial in the run of success the Cubs had. yeah I know it was 1 title and I often think what could've been. Seeing them win In 2016 was wonderful though. Both wonderful and relieving as a fan. 2015 was amazing for Arrieta. I just looked at his game logs. This wasn't just a great season, it was one of the all time great seasons. in 28 of his 33 starts he got a decision. in his 5 no decisions the Cubs were 3-2. Ill give the basic lines for those 5 ND. 6 IP 7 H 6 R 3 ER 2 BB 7 k Cubs bear Ariz 9-6. 7 Ip 8 H 4 R 4 ER 0 BB 5 K Cubs lose to KC 8-4 7 IP 3 H 1 R 1 ER 2 BB 7 k. Cubs lose to STL 3-2 6 IP 5 H 2 R 2 ER 3 BB 6 K Cubs beat Brewers 5-2 8 IP 6 H 2 r 1 ER 1 BB 5 K Cubs beat Pit 3-2 He started the season 11-6. After his 6th loss he started 13 more games that year. his team went 13-0 in those starts. areieta was 11-0 and gave up 9 runs only 6 being earned runs walking 17 and striking out 95. His Era during this stretch. 0.57 ! Crazy.

    @@3-0Greenlight Such a strange career. from pretty basically really bad with the Orioles to legendary run with the Cubs. his last season the first time around was not all that bad. he had a 3.53 ERA IN 2017. He wasn't horrible as a Philly but he wasn't good either. But wow did he implode when he came back to Chicago and completed the implosion with the Padres. He did manage to keep his career ERA under 4 though. lol I still haven't watched this video. I guess I better. People never talk about his postseason successes much. He won 2 games in the 16 world series and that 2015 WC complete game dominant performance over the pirates was so good it had Sean Rodriguez boxing with a Gatorade cooler.

    Bit of a stretch calling a dude a superstar who's peak was under 2 full seasons long. And he only got the Cy in '15 because of timing - for all intents and purposes, Greinke had a better body of work and deserved it more. If anything, Arrieta was a flash in the pan.
