Nothing disclosed but something isn't right with him. Could be mental too. Pressure as a leader may be getting to him.

He spent all winter trying to be a TV personality, instead of working on his craft.

I think his BABIP is over .400, but I would have to look a little more at his numbers. He faded down the stretch in 2015.

Watched him two starts ago. Mechanically his front side is leaking pushing the ball to the middle of the plate with no late punch on any pitch

I'm a pitching coach by profession. I'm no expert or guru by any means but you do start to notice certain things after a while

i havent watched him pitch but just looking at his stats, he has a babip of .436 and has a hr/fb ratio of 41.7 and his strikeout to walk ratio would be the second highest of his career. given the fact that his babip and hr/fb are like 4x higher than his career average and his k/bb ratio are about in line with his career average, i wouldnt start to worry. just the nature of 15 innings of baseball.

the only thing i would keep my eye on is the fact that his velocity is down but once again, this could just be the nature of only 15 innings of source material
