You can't be on top forever. If he lost his mojo, he probably needs to see a specialty pitching coach.

His throwing motion was certainly a catalyst, but like others have said, pitching is not a natural motion. Then add his body type... there was no way for him to maintain his epic run.

The act of pitching is unnatural.

This. Throwing overhand, especially as often and hard as pitchers do, is brutal on the arm. Players who or lose velocity or loose velocity are extreme anomalies.

if he had decent location he would still be a top flight pitcher, without 95 mph he gets hit because he cant hit the corners like a maddux

Body is to small for his pitching motion...

Smokes a ton of weed...

Obviously doesn't do much to stay in any type of shape...

If the giants are smart he was spend the rest of his career as a long man...and for every time he pitches say...10 scoreless innings in a row...rotate him with the 5th day starter and see what he can do
