Break Up the Cubs

I have to say this team is pretty impressive so far.  16-0 no-hitter for Arrieta.  Knock on wood, but we may be looking at a dynasty here.  I also have to hand it to Cubs management for acquiring Arrieta in the first place and re-engineering his career, or at least letting him re-engineer it.  It took some guts to make that trade with the Orioles and take a chance on a pitcher who theretofore had been a bust despite lots of promise.  Arrieta is now probably the best starting pitcher in baseball.

They also must have figured out something about Flannagan, the Reds starter, who had no-hit them into the seventh inning last time out but got clobbered from the start last evening.
