Johan Santana goes 6 1/3 inning give up three homers in loss to Brewers. Just like last season, when Johan does not keep the ball low and away he get lit up by the home run ball.
Being a Twins fan things look just like they did last season. Johan is most effective when the ball is low and away or high and inside. Yesterday to no surprise the ball was left up and over the middle of the plate. So far this season in three starts Santana has given up four homers and has an era over three.
Seems like Johan is trying to do to much. He needs to go back to his old game and just throw the ball. Play catch out there. Maybe just maybe the pressure has gotten to him, or the big contract has messed him up.
