Kyle Hansen took over in relief for Montas and stranded the runners with 2 Ks and a groundout.

 

Montas's ERA is now 1.23 on the year.

 

Meanwhile for Charlotte, Carlos Sanchez is 1-2 with a walk, Davidson 1-3 with a HR, Saladino 1-2 with a double, Phegley 1-3 with a HR. But they're down 13-4 with De Los Santos following Johnson in getting rocked.

Hanson has done well this season also.

Looking like a wasted year for Erik Johnson. Bizarre how this is going for him.

I've never seen anything like it - last year he was fantastic and poised. Him being this way shocked me good.

Could be something which doesn't show up on ordinary tests, structural shoulder fault maybe?

 

Meanwhile Ravelo 3-3

Not really. If he is being honest with the staff, they would be able to find something. Maybe it's just a learning year for him.

His velo is down 3-5 mph. This is the same level that he destroyed last year.

That's what I mean. Learning from adversity can be a good thing. You tend to learn more when you struggle. He may learn that he will never see the MLB again as well.

Any theories on what could be causing the velocity decease if not injury?

Mechanics out of whack?

 

It's usually injuries but if they haven't shut him down by now, I would doubt it.

 

The only thing I can think of is an injury similar to Danks where the shoulder is loose. Maybe they are seeing if he can pitch with it.

I am not a doctor nor do I have any medical knowledge so here is my question, does anybody know

if a shoulder was over used, maybe it is worn out, needing rest?

His mechanics are horrible right now. Getting under the ball.

Is that what it is?

 

If so, it would explain the decreased velocity, decreased break on off speed pitches and keeping the ball up in the zone.

 

Hopefully, he can get it straightened out.

 

I usually start with decreasing the stride length.
