Blake Snell is an All-Star this season. I can't believe the difference in his pitching between this time a year ago and this year. What is the big difference?

I'm not sure if Snell's performance should come as such a big surprise, given his strong track record coming up through the system and his strong finish to the 2017 season, but it has been fun to watch. Last season, in his final 10 starts after being recalled from Triple-A Durham on Aug. 8, he went 5-1 with a 2.84 ERA.
