Is he tipping? Does he have a knee injury? Does he need to rebuild his mechanics? Has he just lost it? Hard to say since he was so consistent for so many years, but this change isn't as sudden or unexpected as some people will try and claim. Between Kikuchi and Berrios you have two pitchers in your starting rotation that can't get out of the third.

Last season was not part of any down trend.
