Felix's 15 game streak with 7 + innings 2 or less earn runs

[Podunkparte]

The streak is over but he set the bar very high.

King Felix has a legit argument for MVP. I don't know if he'll get it even if his ERA hangs a hair below 2, but I would have no objections if he did win it.

Voters are prolly hating that Trout is having year along with Miggy. Could see it happening if Felix does not falter down stretch.

Sucks Altuve will get no consideration. He is just fun to watch.

Is this the beginning of another late season slump for Felix?

Last 3 starts - 5.09 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, .306 BAA, .948 OPSA

Felix has a 3.61 era and 1.25 whip in sept most pitchers would love these numbers but its not king felix like

His past couple of seasons however he's been atrocious to end the season - from 2011-2013, had a 5.07 ERA in Sept, and in 2011 he had a 7.71 ERA and opponents hit .405 off him over his final 3 starts of the season.

For whatever the reason, in recent history he tends to end the season on a bad note.

Felix has not closed the door on the Cy Young yet. It's just not in the bag. Really he's 6 less starts away from being in a dead heat with Chris Sale. It is what it is; Sale went on the DL so he doesn't have the innings to match up well against Felix because their rate stats are similar. I think if Felix limps to the finish line and Sale catches fire it could be a toss up.
