You have your opinion and I have mine. Terrific guy, so it seems, and still a good pitcher but he is not at all what he once was. Besides what seems to be a back issue I think St. Louis in the playoffs a couple years ago really did a number on him mentally.
And as has been pointed out, he is not pitching many innings and he has a lot of rest between starts. I think that speaks volumes but I am guessing you are not taking that into account.
