Jake Arrieta won the Cy Young Award in the National League last season and looks like he might go back-to-back with the way he has pitched so far this season for the Chicago Cubs. The same can’t be said for the the reigning Cy Young winner in the AL. Houston ace Dallas Keuchel has been roughed up in three consecutive outings, giving up at least five earned runs in each and owns a 2-4 record through his first six starts of the season.
