Let’s hope the rest will do him some good and that we’ll see the old Johan again.

But he just had eight solid days of rest with the ASB, and it surely didn’t do him much good in Atlanta, right?

He adjusted hs glove position when starting his windup since they thought he might be tipping his pitches. People like to point to the no hitter. But it’s only about 20 pitches more than he would have thrown, or maybe another inning’s worth. I hardly think an extra 20 innings burned him out. He was so good early this season. Hopefully they can figure it out quickly.
