Mariners' Vidal Nuno: Excels despite Mariners' loss
Nuno struck out four batters and allowed just one hit in 2.2 scoreless innings during Sunday's loss to the Twins.
Analysis:
Nuno has been a key contributor to a dominant Seattle bullpen that has a collective ERA of 2.51. His 1.08 ERA and 0.78 WHIP have been made possible by his incredible ball control, as he has an astronomical 20.00 K/BB and 0.54 BB/9 after pitching 16.2 innings across 19 games. He's also given up just one home run this season, which is a relief to the Mariners, as his HR/9 in 2015 was 1.52.
