    He's definitely having some kind of problem. We'll probably hear about it later in the season when he goes in for some kind of surgery.

          The effects of the steroids or juice(whatever Lincecum was using) have worn off now.

          He's just another ******* stiff out there trying to pitch on his own.

                In 2008, Lincecum’s average velocity on his two-seam fastball was 94.0 mph. In 2009, that fell to 92.4, and now in 2010 he is averaging 91.

                In 2008 his two-seamer had an average horizontal movement of -2.6 inches, and then -3.1 in 2009. 2010 Just -.2

                someone explain that to me..kid just turned 26 and is losing his speed this dramatically???? very unusual

                either his arm is almost dead and he will be out of the league soon or he was juicing. or both

                      do you think maybe that herky jerky ass delivery is just taking its toll on him? i think that why they wanted to go to arbitration instead of signing him to a big long term deal.....

                            His biggest problem is his velocity is down this year. He used to throw 97 now his best fastball hits 93, 94 tops.

                                  He is only human and is subject to a bad stretch like anyone else. All ballplayers have a rough time at some point in their careers. This is his and I am sure he will rebound from it like all the greats do.

                                          He's still 8-4 with a 3.28

                                          Granted its very Un-Lincecum like but most guys would take those numbers anyday

                                          Just something to keep in mind

                                              guy is too skinny to hold up IMO, add in his weird throwing motion and its a recipe for disaster. It may be mechanical and fixable, but he can't last long

                                                  the kid looks like he has been pitching hurt since may. he'll be fine once he gets some rest.

                                                              definitely a trend to worry about, walks, hits, era are up, velocity down.

                                                              granted numbers overall are still good but the trend is moving negatively.

                                                              hope he gets himself together, is fun to watch him.
