I could see a change in his arsenal as well as velocity could have influenced his results last year. This, in addition to his injury history, makes me more convinced than ever that he needs to pitch exclusively out of the pen going forward. Going back and forth with him is ruining him.

Good catch on his pitch mix in this article.
I think the easiest fix is to bring back the 4-seamer for up in the zone. The sweeper is here to stay.
