I've definitely had players whose HR ability took the season off. Tak wasn't a bruiser - 20-25 HR guy. But 2046 it was after the AS break when he got his first.

It's scarier when it's an older player. Makes me worry it's not just bad luck, but maybe an erosion of skill is contributing.

Yep... That is where I am with Kim right now. Only 2 HRs so far, for a guy who as been hitting ~40. Wondering if its erosion, just a bad streak, or the fact that he seems to always play worse at the start of the season...

I've been wondering something similar as I have a player who routinely starts off the first 200 AB's of the season hitting below .200 then gets red hot in the last half of the season.

It's happened so much that I'm starting to wonder if there is some sort of hidden trait effect here.

I've had more issues with pitching this season than anything else. Tejeda has been my most solid and consistent starter for the past 7 seasons, but this year, his ERA is over a full run higher than normal. Now, I'm an analytics guy, and recognize that his FIP is right around where it should be, so it should normalize. I'm having a bunch of issues with my pen though. My 7-8-9 inning guys have been rock solid the past few years, but my setup role has been a revolving door. Noland, Hibbard, & Flores have held down those spots the past few seasons, but Hibbard and Noland have collapsed so far this year. Both of them still have solid FIP's, but Hibbard is definitely on the decline.
