Appearing in last year’s World Series has helped make Corey Kluber a more recognizable name across the MLB landscape. His popularity will only grow once he adds a no-hitter to the list of achievements.
Kluber may be the most obvious choice to pop his no-hitter cherry in 2017. Over the past three seasons he has logged 10 complete games and 3 shutouts. He is an absolute workhorse with great strikeout numbers to get him through even the toughest of lineups.
Kluber’s best chance at a no-hitter came in May 2015 when he allowed one hit against the St. Louis Cardinals while striking out 18. It was an amazing game tainted by one bad pitch. We should expect more incredible outings out of the Cleveland Indians’ ace in 2017 with the possibility of adding a no-hitter to the back of his baseball card.
