I don’t think it was abuse as much as lack of major league talent.
50+% GB rate is nice, but not a big K guy. His 2022 had good actual results even if the defense independent numbers were middling. He had a decent stretch in April last year, was getting Ks as well as GBs, and throws hard enough. Did seem like he had several multiple inning outings mostly with 2 days rest or more, then blew up after a 3 inning outing with 1 day off. That stretch starting 4/25 looks like some force feeding.
