I'm with Coach. I don't think it's very unreasonable to have high expectations for a guy who put up a 3.11 ERA as a 22 year old and a 2.75 ERA as a 23 year old.
Whatever the reason, whether it's the workload, injuries, his 5-cent head, or whatever else you want to say, I don't think you can deny that he's really nowhere near the same pitcher now that he was from '03-'05, and I doubt he ever will be again.
