Is Jake Arrieta the most fan-friendly tweeter?

Twitter can be used for a lot of things and as sports fans one of the coolest aspects of Twitter is the ability to connect with our favorite athletes. However, that connection is often one sided with fans tweeting at athletes and athletes ignoring the vast majority of the thousands of tweets they receive.

Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta isn't the typical athlete though.

Arrieta reguarly interacts with fans on Twitter and is constantly answering their questions. The Cubs right-hander is arguably one of the easiest athletes to interact with on Twitter and it's a nice reminder that athletes are just like all of us (aside from the whole professional athlete thing).

Arrieta is always there to give fans coaching advice and talk about Chipotle.

 

And for the Cubs fans, it turns out he's a big fan of the city of Chicago, which may be a good sign for the future.
