DYK: Arrieta's season one for the ages

• No starting pitcher has been more dominant following the All-Star break than Arrieta was in 2015. His 0.75 second-half ERA was the lowest among starters following the break in Major League history. The only other pitcher to be used exclusively as a starter and finish with a sub-1.00 second-half ERA is Roger Clemens, who racked up a 0.97 ERA over 12 second-half outings in 1990.
