Per LA Times beat writer Andy McCullough:

"The sample size is what it is, but:

Kenley Jansen in 65 appearances in 2017: 0 losses, 1 blown save, 5 homers allowed.

Kenley Jansen in two appearances in 2018: 1 loss, 1 blown save, 2 homers allowed."

When your fastball is down 2.4 mph, it's time to wonder what is up. That's not just mechanics. That sounds more like a dead arm. But you never know. I like this one:
