Ya, the Cubs are the best team in baseball imo but Arietta is not the best pitcher. Kershaw has been, is and probably will be for some time the best pitcher in the game.

Fair, but going back to last July it's hard to argue Arrieta isn't a valid "best pitcher in baseball".

 

My particular problem with the "even better than Sale" crack. Chris Sale is a great pitcher that was (until this season) wasted on a bad team. It's not hard to understand why he was left out.

Looks like Jason Heyward just broke his collarbone

X-rays are clear. MRI tomorrow. MRI issues tend to be pretty scary though. He definitely looked bad.

 

Edit: Side contusion. Out 3-5 days.

He's very fortunate. That looked pretty nasty.

I had hoped Zobrist was old and last year was the beginning of the end for him. Instead, he's one of the best in baseball this year (5th in fWAR).

 

 

He's always been awesome. Last 2 years may be pretty bad on that deal though.

I think Zobrist will probably be the type of guy that just falls off the earth and goes from great to awful in a short amount of time. He maximizes every bit of physical talent that he has on a daily basis. When his body says no you are done, even a little bit, he will wont be able to max out and he will be bad.
