0 earned runs in his first 9 innings this year.

28 runs in his last 13 innings.

He's either hiding an injury or someone needs to get his head right. Pitching is a mind game as much as it is raw talent and sheer amounts of work. Cody didn't get to UT and suddenly drop off because of his arm or he suddenly became inept at throwing the ball. For all the stereotypes of baseball guys being blue collar dufus sluggers, you don't get to this level without the ability to THINK within the game at the plate or on the mound.

He's another Tommy John guy. About 2 years removed. 

His inability to throw strikes has seemingly come out of nowhere. Walked 4 in his first 16 innings this year. Walked 17 in his last 8 innings. Weird stuff.

It's mental. You can see it on his face when he goes out there.

No faith in this pitching coach? He’s just like us!

How about a little faith in yourself to throw it over the plate with a 14-run lead.

That was so painful to watch. Another Steve Rodriguez Baylor gift.

The last month has been 4 appearances, 3 innings, 5 hits, 12 walks, 2 HBP, 5 Ks, 12 earned runs. A cool 36.00 ERA and 5.67 WHIP

Maybe he should try pickle ball.

It’s really difficult to not give up runs when your whip is over 5.  Do not recommend.

Maybe he should come into a tied away game, nobody out, bottom of the 9th, based loaded, 3-0 count….that should get his attention!
