Hunter Brown Struggles to Generate Whiffs in Recent Start

Hunter Brown had an unusually low strikeout/whiff performance in his most recent outing, recording just one significant swing-and-miss against Rafael Devers. Brown acknowledged his chase rate was down but was uncertain whether the cause was opposing hitters' adjusted approach or his own execution. He noted the variance is part of baseball but flagged it as a meaningful departure from his typical profile. The comments suggest a potential short-term concern about his swing-and-miss stuff.
