Strike zone for Kluber appears to be anything within 2 feet of homeplate.

At this rate there'll be 7 no hitters before June.

I think he was a Ranger at one point. But he sucked. I don't even remember anything he did, but I remember he played for them. Now he goes somewhere else and is going to no hit them. About par. He should be able to finish this thing. 85 pitches through 7. As long as he doesn't go out and throw like 20 pitches this inning (that'd put him at 105 going into the 9th).

At least Kluber is good. He’ll be the first non bum to throw a no hitter this year

He threw one inning for Rangers last year and got hurt.

Seeing all these no-hitters happening all of a sudden, my question is this: is it not okay to try to go for a bunt in a situation where a pitcher is totally on his game and unhittable? Or does that go against another one of these crazy "unwritten rules" in baseball?

If he finishes, that'll be 6 through mid May. 2 of those against the Rangers. Musgrove, Rodon, Means, Miley, Turnbull and now Kluber.

Means, Rodon and Musgrove are either too young to shut the door on and playing well currently or have played very well when not injured.

Kluber hasn’t been elite for a few years. He was trending downwards pretty bad, maybe he’s picking back up?

These no hitters are becoming routine...

Love it. The league adjustment is long overdue. I want to see one every single day from here on out. Maybe then, we'll start teaching these kids how to hit again.

Would’ve guessed Cole instead of Kluber.

Won't ever happen for Cole. Like Maddux once famously said "I'll never get one, I'm around the plate too much".

Where’s all the stupid jinx mob that thinks a post on blowout ruins he chances of a no no happening?

Curious to see how MLB addresses this. Unless it’s what they’re wanting to happen.
