Jake Arrieta - Page 5 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Throws five innings in no-decision Arrieta allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings Friday against the Dodgers. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Arrieta's night could've gone a lot worse if he hadn't found a way out of two bases-loaded scenarios. He allowed a run to score in the second on an RBI groundout by Gavin Lux and then was taken deep to lead off the third by Zach McKinstry. Arrieta hasn't been able to reproduce the same magic he had in his first stint with the Cubs, as he currently owns a 5.32 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 60:30 BB:K over 71 innings. He's now lined up for a meeting against Milwaukee next week.

Takes loss in short outing Arrieta (5-8) took the loss Saturday against the Marlins, allowing six runs (four earned) on six hits across three innings. He fanned five and did not issue a walk.

Impact A fielding error by Kris Bryant helped set up a three-run first inning for Miami that was capped off by a two-run long ball by Adam Duvall. A Jose Lobaton passed ball assisted the Marlins in pushing a fourth run across in the second inning before a second two-run homer by Duvall gave Miami a 6-0 lead in the third. While his defense let him down a bit Saturday, the right-hander has now allowed four earned runs in consecutive shaky outings. He'll look to get his first win since May 25 when he takes the ball at some point during next weekend's series at Dodger Stadium.

Shaky against Mets Arrieta (5-7) took the loss Monday against the Mets after allowing four runs on four hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out three.

Impact The veteran has now failed to pitch past five innings in six straight starts, posting a 6.66 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 22:14 K:BB through 25.2 innings over that stretch. Arrieta hasn't delivered useful fantasy numbers since 2018, and despite his solid April performance, it looks like the current campaign will be no different for the 35-year-old.

Allows one run in no-decision Arrieta allowed one run across five innings and did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Padres. He gave up four hits and a walk while striking out six.

Impact Arrieta pitched reasonably well and matched San Diego ace Yu Darvish through five innings, though he left with the game tied 1-1. The veteran righty had picked up losses in each of his last two appearances, yielding eight earned runs across just 5.2 combined innings in those starts, so this was a step in the right direction. He'll take a 4.97 ERA into his next scheduled outing Monday against the Mets.

Takes another loss Arrieta (5-6) was tagged with the loss Friday against the Padres after allowing six runs on six hits and two walks while fanning one across two innings.

Impact This was Arrieta's worst start of the season by a wide margin, as he needed 58 pitches just to complete the first two innings, gave up two homers and allowed six of the eight runs the Cubs gave up throughout the game. The veteran right-hander has allowed four or more runs in three of his last six outings and owns an 8.28 ERA during that stretch, a span in which he's tossed more than five complete innings just once. The veteran will try to bounce back next week in a tough matchup on the road against the Padres.

Takes loss in short outing Arrieta (5-5) allowed five runs (two earned) on six hits and four walks over 3.2 innings Sunday, striking out three and taking the loss against Cincinnati.

Impact The Reds jumped on Arrieta right out of the gate, plating three runs in the first inning. He later gave up two more runs in the fourth, including a solo homer by Eugenio Suarez. Arrieta's ERA bumped up to 4.41 as he fell to 5-5 through 10 starts this season. He's projected to face the Giants on the road next weekend.

Picks up fifth win Arrieta (5-4) recorded the win Tuesday against the Pirates after giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits with seven strikeouts and one walk over five innings.

Impact The veteran righty struggled early as he surrendered all three runs and five hits across the first two frames, but he blanked the Buccos for the rest of the outing. Arrieta has a 4.37 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB over 47.1 innings (nine starts) this season.

Takes loss versus Nats Arrieta dropped to 4-4 after giving up four earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Nationals.

Impact Arrieta kept the Nationals off the board for the first two innings, but things were bumpy thereafter. He allowed eight of the final 19 batters he faced to reach base, with Juan Soto's 421-foot solo shot off the Wrigley Field right-field scoreboard in the fifth inning ultimately holding up as the difference in the game. Since opening his second stint with the Cubs with a pair of quality starts, Arrieta has posted a 5.34 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 6.5 K/9 over his subsequent six outings.

Nabs win in return Arrieta (4-3) picked up the win Friday, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk over six innings in a 4-2 victory over the Tigers. He struck out one.

Impact Both runs scored on solo shots by Jake Rogers and Robbie Grossman, but Arrieta otherwise held the Detroit offense in check. The veteran right-hander was making his first start since April 30 due to a thumb injury and was limited to 78 pitches (47 strikes), but he still came through with his fourth quality start of the year. He'll take a 4.10 ERA and 29:13 K:BB through 37.1 innings into his next outing.

Activated ahead of start Arrieta (thumb) was activated off the 10-day injured list as expected ahead of his scheduled start Friday against the Tigers, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Arrieta wound up missing just two turns in the rotation with a thumb abrasion. He carried a 2.57 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through his first five starts before allowing seven runs in his most recent outing, which could potentially be blamed on the thumb issue. Jason Adam was optioned in a corresponding move.

Expected to start Friday Arrieta (thumb) is expected to start Friday's series opener against the Tigers, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

Impact Arrieta is throwing a bullpen session Wednesday, and his return to game action is imminent as long as he feels good afterward. Arrieta recorded a 4.31 ERA and 28:12 K:BB in 31.1 innings before he went on the injured list with a right thumb abrasion.
