(My Chinese output has been broken, so I have to post in poor English.)
to become the third CYA winner to go winless in first 7 starts next season.
The first two:
Frank Viola in 1989 Twins
(1988 CYA: 24-7, 2.64, 7CG, 2SHO, 255.1IP, 193K, 54BB)
(First 7 games in 1989: 0-5, 4.84, 2CG, 48.1IP, 55H, 7HR, 32K, 12BB)
Zack Greinke in 2010 Royals
(2009 CYA: 16-8, 2.16, 6CG, 3SHO, 229.1IP, 242K, 51BB)
(First 7 games in 2010: 0-4, 2.51, 46.2IP, 41H, 5HR, 36K, 8BB)
Corey Kluber's first 7 games in 2015:
0-5, 5.04, 44.2IP, 51H, 4HR, 46K, 11BB
==
Team results in their first 7 starts:
1989 Twins: 0-7
2010 Royals: 1-6
2015 Indians: 0-7
==
So far, Kluber's 7 games has been the worst among the trio.
And the season result of the first two:
Frank Viola in 1989: 13-17, 4.33, 9CG, 2SHO, 261IP, 217K, 74BB
(traded from the Twins to the Mets in midseason)
Zack Greinke in 2010: 10-14, 4.17, 3CG, 220IP, 181K, 55BB
What will become of Kluber in 2015?
The only thing for sure is:
He would set a new MLB record for a CYA winner,
if he remains winless in his next start, his 8th start of 2015.
