Jake Arrieta taunts Pirates fans on Twitter

Well, this is fun. Pirates fans are poking at Cubs Wild Card starter Jake Arrieta on Twitter, and Arrieta is poking back.

Whatever helps keep your hope alive, just know, it doesn't matter. @Cubs https://t.co/bJDN1wP0tS

This is silly stuff, and all it's going to do is give Pirates fans even greater incentive to harass Arrieta during the game, and then give them more reason to heckle him for pretty much the rest of his career is he goes all Johnny Cueto and blows it.
