ESPN's Buster Olney: Cubs Jake Arrieta 'most unhittable pitcher' I've ever seen

Jake Arrieta's second half has been well-documented as he made an extremely strong case for the NL Cy Young Award (and Maddon even believes MVP).

The numbers are historic and speak for themselves but there's also the intimidation factor and mental toughness that Arrieta brings to the mound that is setting him apart around baseball.

ESPN's Buster Olney joined The Dan Patrick Show on Monday and said in all his year of covering baseball, Arrieta may be as hot as any pitcher he's ever seen.

"When you run through them, four earned runs in the last nine weeks," Olney said.
