Yahoo Sports
• Nola is only the ninth pitcher in MLB history with 116 or more strikeouts and 33 or fewer walks 84 games into a season. The others are Christy Mathewson (1908), Ed Walsh (1910), Walter Johnson (1914 and 1915), Grover Cleveland Alexander (1917), Denny McLain (1968), Ferguson Jenkins (1969), Don Sutton (1975), Juan Marichal (1964, 1965, 1967 and 1968), All but McLain are Hall of Famers.
• Nola's 489 career strikeouts are most in Phillies history by a pitcher after 78 games. The previous high was 484 by Cole Hamels. It's also 15th-most in MLB history by a pitcher after 78 starts. And of the 14 ahead of him, only four had fewer walks (Stephen Strasburg, Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom and Corey Kluber).
• Nola has already had 10 starts this year allowing four or fewer hits. That's tied for the most in franchise history at this point in a season. Alexander had 10 such games 84 games into 1915.
• Nola's 26 career starts allowing four or fewer hits are most ever by a Phillie after 78 career starts.
• Nola's 14 starts allowing two or fewer runs so far this year are second-most by a Phillies starter 84 games into a season in the last 100 years. The only pitcher the last century with more such starts at this point in a season was John Denny, who had 15 in 1983 on his way to the Cy Young Award.
• Nola's 14 starts this year allowing two or fewer earned runs are fourth-most in baseball, and his 32 starts over the last two years allowing two or fewer earned runs are fifth-most in the majors.
• Nola's 35 wins are second-most in Phillies history after 78 starts, behind only Alexander (42) and tied with Tom Seaton (35), and Cole Hamels (35).
• Nola has had 12 starts this year where he's gone at least six innings and allowed two or fewer earned runs, fourth-most in baseball. Only Max Scherzer (15), Justin Verlander (13) and Blake Snell (13) have more.
• Nola's 43 career starts going six innings and allowing two or fewer runs are third-most ever by a Phillies pitcher in his first 78 career starts, behind two guys who pitched in the 1910s -- George McQuillan (54) and Alexander (47).
• Of the 87 pitchers in baseball who've pitched at least 85 innings, only one - Trevor Bauer of the Indians - has allowed fewer home runs than Nola. Bauer has allowed five in 113 2/3 innings. Nola has allowed six in 116 innings.
• Nola's start Wednesday was the 46th of his career with six or more strikeouts and two or fewer walks. That's the most in MLB history by a pitcher after 78 career starts, tied with Noah Syndergaard.
• Nola's 35 wins are tied for the most in Phillies history by a pitcher in his first 78 career games. Hamels also had 35 wins after 78 starts.
• Nola's 11 wins this year match the most by a Phillies pitcher 84 games into a season since Curt Schilling had 13 in 1999 – some 19 years ago. It's the second-most wins by a Phillies pitcher this early in a season since 1980, when Steve Carlton had 15 on the way to 24 wins and the Cy Young Award.
• Nola's 2.41 ERA is fifth-lowest by a Phillies starter at this point in a season (at least 75 innings pitched) in 50 years, behind Wayne Twitchell (2.08 in 1973), Carlton (2.14 in 1980), Denny (2.17 in 1983) and Roy Halladay (2.33 in 2010).
• Nola has started 18 games this year without allowing more than four earned runs. He's the first Phillies starter to open a season with 18 straight games allowing four or fewer runs in 27 years. Two Phillies starters had longer streaks in 1991 - Tommy Green with 27 and Jose de Jesus with 20.

Oh, newsflash, Nola is really fricking good.

And had he gotten some run support the past couple of years, he’d be in the 40s for wins.

How do those numbers compare with MLB? It's s lot of Philly numbers.

That's 15 facts with stats.
So are 5 of them Nola stats I will believe?

There is something wrong with this stat. Plenty of guys have done that this season.
So unless I'm misreading something, no I do not believe that one.

Man this guy isn’t bad.

This season through 7/4, Nola does lead MLB pitchers in WAR with 5.3. Jake DeGrom is second with 4.9.
And out of all players, only Mike Trout (6.6) and Jose Ramirez (5.7) have higher WARs than Nola.
Now THAT is impressive.

They hand out a very specific award at the end of the year for this type of production from a pitcher.

You are correct. For example, Chris Sale has 164 Ks and only 29 BBs so far this season.

Nola should make 2018 All Star game !!!!!
Phillies get no respect though.....
What if Nola went to a leading contender in MLB ??

Not bad considering he's still on a Rookie contract.
Kids about to get PAID.

Great work. Surprised some1 hasn't said something about the thread being about ex-TIGERS and shouldnt be on this board like that prick said about Bregman last week.

The phils have a pretty good chance of landing machado by the trade deadline- I think that squarely puts them at contenders status.

Moscona definitely reads the rant, he listed all these off early in his show
