What's Up With Johan?

I am surprised that with the NY media spotlight, no one has noticed this glaring problem that the Mets are having, other than injuries, is Johan Santana.

In April he was on top of his game with an ERA of 1.10 and a record of 3-1, and could have been 4-0, or atleast 3-0. He was far and away the best in the NL that month and showed no signs of slowing down, as he allowed 1 ER, then 0 ER, then 0 ER, then 1 ER, then 2 ER. So he combined to allow a grand total of 4 ER all of April/March.

In May he was not nearly as good as his ERA was 2.43, so one could argue that they began to figure out what Johan was doing. His ER totals were: 0 ER, 0 ER , 4 ER , 2 ER , 3 ER. He allowed more than 2 ER for the first time this season against the Giants, but the Mets still won. Then he allowed 3 against Washington, Washington? His 2 ER performance was versus Boston.

In June, although he has only had two starts and it is all about sample size, his ERA is, and I swear to you this is no joke, 5.54. He allowed 5 ER against Philly, at Citifield, and that is the first time he has allowed that many runs in a game since in Cincinnati last year. so what is wrong with Johan? Is he pitching hurt and refusing to admit it because other people are dropping like flies? The Mets have a total of 8 players on the DL, and two from the rotation. The earliest expected return of all of them is mid-late June.
