Jake Arrieta is leaning toward resting up for the second half and not pitching in Tuesday's All-Star Game, according to Scott Boras.

"We've scuffled the past couple weeks," Arrieta said. "The break is coming at a really good time."

Arrieta is 12-4 with a 2.68 ERA, but has pitched no more than six innings in each of his past five starts, including three that lasted less than six.
